    A Force/Area Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B Force/Density Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C Force/Acceleration Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D None of above Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    Pressure is defined as the force exerted per unit area on a surface. The formula for pressure is P=Force/Area. The force applied is always perpendicular to the surface. The SI unit of pressure is Pascal (Pa), equivalent to 1 N/m2.
