Option 1 : Green cube
Concept :
Pressure :
- It is the force that acts on a unit area of a surface called pressure.
- Pressure = force / area on which it acts
Explanation :
- The smaller the area, the larger the pressure on a surface for the same force.
- Example: The area of the pointed end of the nail is much smaller than that of its head.
- The same force, therefore, produces a pressure sufficient to push the pointed end of the nail into the wooden plank.
- A green cube with a side of 0.25 cm will exert more pressure on a flat table as it has less area as compared to a red cube having a side of 0.35 m and a yellow cube of side 0.5 m.
So, the correct answer is the green cube.
- S.I.unit of pressure is Pascal.
