Question

a force of 1400 N acts on a surface of 20 m. calculate the pressure produced.​

Answer 1

Answer:

The pressure is given as Force/Area.

In this case, the force is 400 N and the pressure exerted is 20N/m

2

.

Therefore, Area=

Pressure

Force

=

20N/cm

2

400N

=20cm

2

.

Hence, the area on which the force acts is 20cm

2

.

Answer 2

Answer:

70 pascals

Explanation:

pressure= force/ area

=1400/20

= 70 pascals
