Question

a force of 120 N is applied to an object of area 3m . calculate the pressure

Answer 1

As per the question given above, the force of 120 N is applied to an object.

The object of area is 3m.

Now we have to calculate the pressure.

As, Force = 120 N Area =3m square.

As we know, Pressure =force /area So, Pressure =120 /3 =40n/m square.

So, the answer is 40n/m square.

Answer 2

F=120N
A=3m
P=?
We know that,
P=F/A
P=120/3
P=40 pascal or 40P
