What happens to Pressure exerted on a surface , if both force and area are doubled?
Answers
Pressure is the force applied perpendicular to the surface of an object per unit area over which that force is distributed.
As pressure is force on a unit area, it depends on what grounds do you double the force..
For example if you double the force and let the area remain constant, then the pressure is doubled.
But if you double force as well as area, then it doesn't change at all it remains the same.
If you double the force and quadruple the area, pressure becomes half and so on.
Answer:
Pressure is the force applied perpendicular to the surface of an object per unit area over which that force is distributed. ... If you double the force and quadruple the area, pressure becomes half and so on.
When the surface area is doubled, keeping the force constant, the pressure will decrease. b] When the force is doubled, keeping the area constant, pressure will increase. So, it is clear that the pressure is inversely proportional to the area.
