A pressure of 10 Pa acts on an area of 3.0 m2. What is the force acting on the area? What force will be exerted by the application of same pressure if the area is made one-third?

If the area is made one-third i.e. 1 m2, then the force would be
Pressure = \(\frac{Force}{Area}\)
Force = Area x Pressure
= 3 x 10
= 30 N
If the area is made one-third i.e. 1 m2, then the force would be
Pressure = \(\frac{Force}{Area}\)
Force = Area x Pressure
= 1 x 10
= 10 N
