Question

A box of mass 10 kg has a base 1m x 1m. What is the pressure exerted by it on the ground?​

Answer 1

Force=weight if the box

=10kg-f=100n

Area of contact =1 m2

Pressure exerted=force/area

=100N/1m2

=100Pa

Guys this is the correct answer 98 is a wrong answer!!! Believe me and write this in your notes you will get good marks!!

Answer 2

❤︎ Answer :-

* Mass of the box = 10 kg.

* Base area = 1m²

* weight = 10 × 9.8 = 98N.

* Pressure = W/A = 98/1 = 98Pa.

So, the pressure exerted by the box on ground is 98Pa.
