Answer:
a force is exerted on an object it can change the object's speed, direction of movement or shape. Pressure is a measure of how much force is acting upon an area. Pressure can be found using the equation pressure = force / area. Therefore, a force acting over a smaller area will create more pressure

Explanation:
Yes , There's a relationship between force and pressure. Pressure is defined as force per unit area. Mathematically it can be stared as
PRESSURE = FORCE / AREA.
Physically, it can be explained by taking a look at some of your daily activity.
ACTIVITY :
- Take an object with a sharp edge like tip of your pen and a not too sharp object like the tip of your pen's cap (assuming it is less sharp than the tip of the pen).
- Now press both of them against your hand (do not injure yourself) you will notice that tip of pen caused more pain than the tip of the pen's cap.
- Why THIS HAPPENED:
- Because the tip of the pen applied more PRESSURE on your hand even after you were applying the same amount of force for both of them.
- As you can see PRESSURE is inversely proportional to area and tip of the pen has a lesser area than tip of pen's cap hence the tip of the pen applies more pressure..
So this is the relation between FORCE and PRESSURE.....
