Question

what would be the change in pressure if the area on which is acting is halfed keeping the force constant​

Answer 1

Answer:

The pressure is increased to four times.

Explanation:

The pressure is defined as force acting on a surface per unit area is known as force.

If the force is constant and the area is reduced to two times the pressure is increased to four times because pressure is inversely proportional to the area.

If we reduces area the pressure is increases if we increases pressure the area get reduced.

The relationship between pressure and area is given by :-

$\boxed{\sf{</strong><strong>P</strong><strong> = \frac{</strong><strong>F</strong><strong>}{</strong><strong>A</strong><strong>} </strong><strong> }}$

where P is pressure

A is area

F is force.
