Question

A force of 100 N is applied on an area of area of 4 m2.Compute pressure being applied on the area.​

Answer 1

Answer:

Pressure= Force / Area

= 100/4

= 25 N/ m².

Answer 2

$\pink{\bold{\underline{\large{Question:}}}}$

A force of 100 N is applied on an area of area of 4 m².Compute pressure being applied on the area.

$\pink{\bold{\underline{\large{ \:Solution:}}}}</p><p></p><p></p><p>$

➵Pressure =Force/Area

➵Here, Force = 100 N

➵ And, Area = 4 m².

Now putting the values in the formula for pressure:

$→ \: pressure \: = \frac{force}{area}$

$→ \: pressure \: = \frac{100 \: N}{4 {m}^{2} }$

$→ \: pressure \: = 25 \: N/\: {m}^{2} \: or \: \: (25\: Pa)$

Thus, the pressure is 25 newtons per square metre or 25 pascals.

➵ A push or pull on an object is called a force.

➵ Pull refers ----> moving away

➵ Push refers ----> towards ourselves

➵ SI unit of force is Newton (whose abbreviation is N).

➵ Formula for force ,

F = ma

Where,

m = mass

a = acceleration

➵ The rate of change if velocity with respect to time is called acceleration.

➵ Velocity is the speed at which something moves in one direction.

➵ Pressure is the force acting on a unit area of the object.

➵ SI unit of measuring pressure is 'newtons per square metre' (N/m²) which is also called as pascals (Pa).

➵ Pressure depends on two factors :

(i) Force applied

(ii) Area over which force acts.
