Variation in Pressure with Area
Variation in Pressure with Area
VARIATION IN PRESSURE WITH AREA: From the formula: Pressure = Force/ Area, following conclusions can be drawn about pressure:
The SI unit of pressure is Pascal (Pa). Increasing the area over which a particular force acts decreases the pressure produced. The converse is also true- decreasing the area over which a particular force acts increases the pressure produced. For example: the pointed end of a high-healed shoe exerts a greater pressure than the flat end, as the force is acting over a smaller at the pointed end. A camel has flat, broad feet that reduce the pressure exerted on the sand. As a result, the camels feet sink very little in the sand, allowing it to move fast.
Which of the following are correct : (a) The more the force acting on a body, the more the pressure it will exert. (b) The more the force acting on a body, the less the pressure it will exert. | |||

8thMy experience with Abhyas academy is very good. I did not think that my every subject coming here will be so strong. The main thing is that the online tests had made me learn here more things.
