Is the pressure exerted by a brick on its side or end more or less?

It is if a brick rests on a table the force with which the brick pushes on the table is its weight. The pressure it exerts on the contact area depends on the brick's orientation. If the contact area between brick and table is larger, the brick exerts less pressure on the contact area.

Is the pressure exerted by different gases different?
yes because different gases have different mass and they will exert more of less pressure according to their mass
What happens to the volume of air in the syringe?
A syringe is similar to a balloon in effect on pressure. The more air you insert, the less space for fluid. The more pressure exerted on it, the less volume of air and the more the liquid would fill up the space.
Is air pressure more or less than outside the body when you inhale?
less
Which more dense brick or cotton?
Brick is of course more denser.
What causes has pressure?
The answer depends on what kind of pressure. If you mean the pressure exerted by gasses on the walls of a container (a balloon, for example), pressure is created by the motion of the molecules of gas. Temperature and density of the molecules are factors. Higher density results in higher pressure. Higher temperature creates more molecular motion, thereby creating higher pressure.
Air weighs less than water would you expect the pressure exerted by water to be greater or less than the pressure exerted by the same amount of air?
water is more dense than air and it has at
Why a tractor provided broad wheel?
Deepika sharma - more the area less is the pressure exerted by it
Is the pressure exerted by different gases different?
yes because different gases have different mass and they will exert more of less pressure according to their mass
Which needles are made to exert more pressure?
Pressure exerted

Would you expect the the pressure exerted by water to be greater or less than the pressure exerted by the same amount of air?
water is more dense than air and it has atmospheric pressure also pushing down on it to make it have greater pressure than air.
How does barometric pressure vary with altitude?
pressure is a physical unit that measures what we may call the density of force i.e. trhe amount of force exerted on a certain area , the atmosphiric pressure is the force exerted by the air mass on a certain area , clearly more air means more mass , thus , when we go down the air above us increases , and when we go down the amount of air decreases.
What has the author Brick written?
Brick is a very common name, and it is not clear which author you are referring to. Can you provide more specific information about the author Brick you are asking about?
Does a cotton ball have inertia than a brick?
I mean have More, Less,or the Same Intertia
Why pressure is greater at botton then surface?
weight is the factor as u goes deeper in a water more pressure is exerted on u because weigt of water also increace with displacement
If the volume of air is less then the less dense or more dense the air is?
its has more pressure
Why does area affect the pressure?
By definition: pressure is measured as FORCE per AREA.
