Equal amount of pressure is applied on two surfaces with different surface areas. For such a condition, which of the following statement is correct?
Options:
A .  Both the surfaces experience the same force.
B .  The surface having more surface area experiences more force.
C .  The surface having less surface area experiences more force.
D .  Both the surfaces experience zero force.
Answer: Option B
:
B
According to formula PressureP=Force(F)Area(A)
or F=P×A.
So, for the same amount of pressure P,if we increase the surface area Aof an object,force experienced by thatobject is increased.
