Question

A boy weighing 60 kg stands on a platform of dimensions 2.5cm*0.5cm.what in pascal does he exert

Answer 1

He exerts 600 newtons

Conversion of pressure = newton per square meter is pascal force per area unit units - psi = pounds per square inch - sengpielaudio Sengpiel Berlin. The SI unit of the pressure is the pascal with the formula sign Pa. 1 Pascal is equal to the pressure of 1 newton per square meter. 1 Pa = 1 N / m2 ≡ 1 kg / m.

Answer 2

Hi...!

To do : Find Pressure .

Given:

Force = 60 Kg = 588.2 Newton

Dimensions = 2.5 cm by 0.5 cm , thus, area = 2.5*0.5 = 1.25 cm²

Thus, pressure = force/area = 588.2/1.25 = 470.56 N/m² or Pascal.
