Answer 2

Answer:

100000N/m²

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Weight of the box = 120N

Area of the box = 12cm²

Unknown:

Pressure of the box on the floor = ?

Solution:

Pressure is the force exerted by a body per unit area:

Pressure = \frac{force }{area}

area

force

We need to convert the area into m² from cm²

10000cm² = 1m²

12cm² = \frac{12}{10000}

10000

12

= 0.0012m²

Pressure = \frac{120}{0.0012}

0.0012

120

= 100000N/m²
