Answer:
Pressure exerted = Applied Force/cross sectional area
Step-by-step explanation:
Pressure exerted on an object is defined as the ratio of the applied force to its cross sectional area.
Mathematically, Pressure (P) = Force /Cross sectional area (A)
Where force is measured in newtons or kilogram meter per seconds square(kgm/s²)
Area is measured in square meters
Pressure is measures in Pascal or newton per meter square(N/m²)
