Pressure = force/area

P1 = 18N/9m2 = 2 N/m2 or 2 Pa

P2 = 32N/16m2 = 2 N/m2 or 2 Pa

P1 = P2, the pressures are the same.

How does pressure depend on area and force?

Pressure gradiant force is the change of pressure measured across a given distsnce, resulting ina net force moving from high to low pressure and is responsible for the initial movement of air.


How force is different from pressure?

Pressure is force divide by unit area. Thus, if you have an air pressure of 100,000 Pascal, that means you have a force of 100,000 newton over an area of 1 square meter. It also means there is a force of 200,000 newton over an area of 2 square meters, a million newton over an area of 10 square meters, etc.


What is the relationship between force area and pressure?

pressure = force / area Therefore pressure and force are directly proportional, meaning... The greater the force the greater the pressure and the lower the force the lower the pressure


A force of 20 N is applied over 5 square meters so what would the pressure be?

its 4pa


What equals force exerted on a surface divided by the total area over which the force is exerted?

That is called pressure. For example, the SI unit for pressure is the Pascal, which is equal to newtons / square meters.


What is the pressure per square meter on a table that is 9 square meters and is under 18N of force?

18N / 9 sq m = 2 N/square meter


What is the force exterted on a surface divideed by the total area over which the force is exerted?

The force exerted on a surface divided by the total area over which the force is exerted is the pressure. Pressure = Force / Area Pascals = Newtons/ square meters Pa = N/m^2 or psi = lb/in^2 (pounds per square inch)


What force acting on an area of 0.5 meter will produce a pressure of 500 pascal?

0.5 meter is not an area, that's a length. In general, the relation is: pressure (in pascal) is force (in newton) divided by area (in square meters).


What is equal to 1 newton per square meter?

Newton per m2 is equal to a Pascal Pascal's are a unit of pressure. If you think about it, the newton is force and the meters squared is area. Pressure is the measure of force per area.


There are 9 newtons on a table The book occupies an area that is 0.3 square meters What is the pressure exerted by the book on the table in pascals?

Pressure = Force/Area Pressure = 9 Newtons/0.3 m2 Pressure is 30 Pascals


What is the equivalent of 3000000 Pa in newtons?

The pressure measured in pascals means the force in newtons per area in square meters. Pascals cannot converted to newtons, because the area is missing. Pascals means pressure and newtons means force.


Force can be calculated as pressure x area. what will produce the most force?

greater pressure on less surface area!
