A block of wood (dimensions: 40 cm × 20 cm × 10 cm) is kept on a tabletop in three different positions: (a) with its side of dimensions 20 cm × 10 cm; (b) with its side of dimensions 10 cm × 40 cm; and (c) with its side of dimensions 40 cm × 20 cm. The pressure exerted by the wooden block on the tabletop in these positions is represented by P{a), P(b) and P(c), respectively. The pressure follows the trend
