Want this question answered?
Pressure is the force exerted on an object divided by the area where the pressure was applied.
Pressure depends on the quantity of force exerted and the area over which the force is exerted
area
Pressure is force / area. Just divide the force by the area. The answer is in pascal.
Over the area not volume
Pressure is the force exerted on an object divided by the area where the pressure was applied.
That's the pressure on that particular area.

The pressure exerted outward by fluids in your body balances the pressure exerted by the atmosphere on the surface of your body. the pressure increases
The force that is exerted on a surface divided by the area of the area is pressure. The standard unit of pressure is the Pascal.
Pressure is force / area. Just divide the force by the area. The answer is in pascal.
Over the area not volume
Pressure is given as Force per unit area (ie. 1 Pascal of pressure is the experienced when 1 Newton of force is exerted over an area of 1m^2). Therefore Pressure and Force are proportional to one another. Area the force is exerted over is inversely proportional to pressure.
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)
