Pressure is defined as the force exerted per unit area on a surface. It is a scalar quantity, meaning it has magnitude but no direction. The formula to calculate pressure (P) is: \[ P = \frac{F}{A} \] where: - \( P \) is the pressure, - \( F \) is the force applied, - \( A \) is the area over which the force is distributed.
