1 point
A. 38,500 N
B. 37,500 N
C. 39,500 N
D. 40,500 N

Answer 1

Answer:

P=F/A

750/20*10

ALSO CONVERT CM IN TO M

Answer 2

Answer:

b) 37,500 N

Explanation:

pressure= force/area

the answer will come in N/m^2

it is currently in cm's.

1m^2= 10000cm^2

therefore, answer= (750*10000)/(20*10)

=37,500 N
