Question 21

The pressure p p\,p exerted on a surface is related to the magnitude F F\,F of the force acting perpendicularly to the surface and the area A A\,A of the surface.

Which equation for p p\,p is correct?

A

p=F×Ap = F \times Ap=F×A

B

p=F÷Ap = F \div Ap=F÷A

C

p=A÷Fp = A \div Fp=A÷F

D

p=F+Ap = F + Ap=F+A
