Question

A force of 150 N acts on an area of 50 cm2

. Calculate the pressure produced on

the body.

Answer 1

Answer:

P=1500000 Pascal

P=1500 Kpascal

P=F/A

F is in N where A is M²

Explanation:

so first change CM² in to M²

1M=100cm

so

1cm= 1/100 M

and

1cm²=(1/100)M²=1/10000M²

so

P=150N/0.0001 M²=150×10000 Pascal
