Question
how is pressure measured?
pressure is measured as force divided by mass.
pressure is measured as force per inch.
pressure is measured as force per unit area.
pressure is measured as force per gram.
Brief Explanations
Pressure is defined as the amount of force applied perpendicular to the surface of an object per unit area. The other options incorrectly pair force with mass, a single linear unit (inch), or mass unit (gram), which do not match the standard scientific definition of pressure.
