Question

A block of mass 5 kg, if kept on a table with its surface of
dimensions 20cmx10cm. Calculate the pressure exerted by the block

​

Answer 1

Answer:

25N/m^2

Explanation:

F=ma

=5×10

=50N

area=20×10

=200sqcm

but it is in cm

convert it in metre

it become 2sqm

pressure = force /area

=50/2

=25N/m^2
