Question

A block of wood of area 0.2 m2 Creates a pressure of 500 Pa. What is its weight?​

Answer 1

Answer:

It's weight is 100N.

Explanation:

Given,

• Area of the wooden block 0.2m²
• Pressure created 500 Pa(Pascal).

Find the weight of the wooden block.

Here, the weight is the force exerted by the body.

We know,

$\sf \leadsto \: Pressure = \dfrac{Force}{Area}$

Let's denotes the weight as w

Substitute the values,

$\sf \implies \: 500 = \dfrac{w}{0.2}$

$\sf \implies \: 500 \ast 0.2 = w$

$\sf \implies \: w = 100$

∴ Weight of the wooden block is 100N.
