That is pressure. It is the force over an area applied to an object in a direction perpendicular to the surface.
p = F / A where:
p is the pressure,
F is the normal force,
A is the area.
The Amount Of Force
Force applied on unit area gives pressure. S.I. unit is pascal.
Force exerted on a given area divided by the area would give the pressure or thrust. It is also termed as stress in case of elasticity. Its unit is N/m2 or also known as pascal.
Over the area not volume
Pressure is the force exerted on an object divided by the area where the pressure was applied.
Pressure is defined as force per unit area.P=F/A

Pressure
Pressure depends on the quantity of force exerted and the area over which the force is exerted
Per what kind of unit? A common unit is pressure: force per unit area.
Pressure is given as Force per unit area (ie. 1 Pascal of pressure is the experienced when 1 Newton of force is exerted over an area of 1m^2). Therefore Pressure and Force are proportional to one another. Area the force is exerted over is inversely proportional to pressure.
