- Since Pressure=Force/Area, if the area is doubled then pressure will be halved.
- For example, with a force of 10 N and two areas:
- Pressure = 10/5 = 2 Pa for an area of 5 metes squared
- Pressure = 10/10 = 1 Pa for an area of 10 meters squared
- Pressure is halved when area is doubled while the force is constant. This works in a similar fashion for other areas, such as if area is tripled then pressure is 1/3 of the original, or if area is ten times bigger then the pressure will be 1/10 of the original value. If the area is halved then the pressure is doubled and so on.
- The presser is inversely proportional to the area on condition that the force is the same.

A force that acts in all directions and comes from the constant collisions of many atoms is?
Its not a force but the answer is pressure. PRESSURE. (:
That is the difference between force and pressure?
Pressure deals with the impact on a particular surface while force is the total impact on a particular surface
How does surface area and force affect pressure?
Pressure is force per area, so P = F/A where pressure is P, force is F and A is area. So Pressure is directly proportional to the force exerted on a surface. So increasing a force by a factor of 2, say, increases the pressure on the surface by 2 also.
Does pressure increase with the amount of force per unit area?
Pressure is defined as the derivative of normal force with respect to surface area. Pressure is proportional to the normal force, and inversely proportional to the surface area. As the normal force over a surface area varies so does pressure. In the case that pressure is increasing then either the normal force is increasing, the surface area of which the normal force is being exerted is decreasing, or the combination of both of these is occurring.
What is the force action on a surface?
Force divided by surface area is called pressure, if that's what you mean.
What happens to the acceleration if the force applied is increased three times?
Assuming the mass remains constant, the acceleration will be tripled as well.
What is divided by surface area to calculate pressure?
That is the force F. p = F / Awhere:p is the pressure,F is the normal force,A is the area (surface).
How can the pressure acting on the surface be increased by the force acting on the surface?
Simply pressure is the force per unit area. So Pressure is directly proportional to the force applied. Hence by increasing the force we can increase the pressure.
What is the force on a surface divided by the area of that surface?
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.
What happens to pressure of the force exerted on a given area increases?
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 pushing on a surface or area?
Pressure

What will the force of attraction be if the distnace between theses two masses is tripled?
Even if it is the electrostatic force or gravitational force, I have F=constant*(mass or charge 1)(mass or charge 2)/radius^2. If the distance is tripled, then r is equal to 3. Let us say that mass or charge 1 and mass or charge 2 and the constant is 1. Forgetting the units, F=(1*1*1)/(3^2) which equals F=1/9. Therefore, the force of attraction will be reduced to 1/9 of its original strength if the distance between the two is tripled.
How does surface area and force affect pressure?
Pressure is force per area, so P = F/A where pressure is P, force is F and A is area. So Pressure is directly proportional to the force exerted on a surface. So increasing a force by a factor of 2, say, increases the pressure on the surface by 2 also.
