---------
Area
The formula above shows how pressure relates to force and area. For example, the pressure exerted by a fluid is equal to the force of the fluid divided by the area over which the force is applied.
Based on this information, which of the following is true?
A. A decrease in area would cause no change in fluid pressure.
B. A decrease in area would cause a decrease in fluid pressure.
C. An increase in force would cause a decrease in fluid pressure.
D. A decrease in force would cause a decrease in fluid pressure.
