Detailed Solution

The above statement is True.
Pressure is the force acting on the unit area of any surface. When the surface area falls, the pressure rises simultaneously, and when the surface area rises, the pressure drops. Hence, pressure is inversely proportional to the area of the cross-section. The SI unit of pressure is measured by Pascal.
It is given by the formula, Pressure=Forcearea.
