Answer:
- Pressure exerted = 1250 KiloPascal
Explanation:
Given
- Force acting on surface, F = 10 kN
- Area of surface, A = 0.08 m²
To find
- Pressure applied, P =?
Formula required
- Formula to calculate Pressure
Pressure = force / area
- Pressure is the force applied per unit area.
- SI unit of pressure = Pascal (Pa)
- 1 Pa = 1 N m⁻²
- Pressure is a scalar quantity.
- Dimensions of Pressure : [ M¹ L⁻¹ T⁻² ]
Solution
Given that,
→ Force applied, F = 10 kN
→ F = 10 × 1000 N
→ F = 10000 N
Using formula to calculate pressure
→ Pressure = Force / Area
→ P = F / A
→ P = (10000 N) / (0.08 m²)
→ P = 1250000 N m⁻²
→ P = 1250000 Pascal
→ P = 1250 kiloPascal
Therefore,
- A pressure of 1250 KiloPascal is exerted.

AnswEr :
- Force = 10 kN = 10000 N
- Area = 0.08 m²
Pressure : Pressure is defined as force applied per unit area. It's a tenser quantity. SI unit of pressure is Pascal's (behind the name of scientist who discovered this quantity)
