Answer:

See below

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Applied Force and Pressure

Pressure = Force / Area

This shows that Applied force and pressure are in direct relationship. This means that If the Applied force is more, the Pressure is also More and vice versa.

2) Surface Area of Contact and Pressure

Pressure = Force / Surface Area of Contact

This shows that Pressure and Surface area of contact are inversely related. This means that if pressure is increased on an object, the surface area of contact decreases and vice versa.
