Question

a force of 1200n acts on the surface of area 1000m2? what would be the pressure on the surface?​

Answer 1

Answer:

SOLUTION ;

Step 1, Given data

Force = 1200 N

Area = 10cm2=0.001m2

Step 2, Finding the pressure and thrust

We know,

Thrust = Force acting normally = 1200 N

Now,

Pressure = force

area

Putting all the values

pressure = 1200 = 1200000pa

0.001

Hence the pressure is 1200000 Pa
