Pressure = Force Area The formula above shows how pressure relates to force and area. For example, the pressure exerted by a fluid is equal to the force of the fluid divided by the area over which the force is applied. Based on this information, which of the following is true? A. An increase in area would cause an increase in fluid pressure. B. An increase in force would cause an increase in fluid pressure. C. A decrease in force would cause an increase in fluid pressure. D. An increase in area would cause no change in fluid pressure. Reset Submit

Answer:

An increase in force would cause an increase in fluid pressure.

Explanation:

The force acting per unit area is called pressure. It can be written as :

[tex]pressure=\dfrac{force}{area}[/tex]

i.e. pressure is directly proportional to the force acting and inversely proportional to the area. Increase in area would decrease the pressure and increase in force would increase pressure.

So, the correct statement that shows the relation between pressure, force and area is "(B) An increase in force would cause an increase in fluid pressure".
