Question

A bronze statue weighs 4800 N and it exerts a pressure of 24.000 Pa on the ground on
which it stands. Find the area of its base.​

Answer 1

Answer:

• 0.2 m².

Explanation:

Given

• Force = 4800 N
• Pressure = 24000 Pa

To find

• Area

Solution

→ Pressure = Force/Area

• 24000 = 4800/Area
• Area = 4800/24000
• Area = 48/240
• Area = 0.2

Hence, the area is 0.2 m².

Answer 2

Explanation:

GIVEN:-

=>Force = 4800N.

=>Pressure = 24000 Pascal.

TO FIND:-

=>Area of base.

UNDERSTANDING THE CONCEPT:-

According to the question,

=>We know the force and pressure of the ground. From the provided information, by using the respective formula, we can find the base.

$\huge\tt\fbox\purple{Answer}$

$\sf{pressure = \dfrac{force}{area} }$

$\sf24000 = \dfrac{48000}{a}$

$\sf{}a = \dfrac{4800}{24000}$

$\sf{}a = 0.2m {}^{2}$

Therefore, Area of base is 0.2m^2.
