Question

A force of 16 N acts on a surface of 50 m^2. Calculate the pressure in pascal.

Answer 1

F=16N

Area=50cm²

1cm=1/100m

50cm²=1/100*100m

50/10000=1/200m

p=f/a

16/(1/200)=16*200

=3200pa

Force = 16N

Area = 50 cm2

= 0.005 m2

Pressure = force/area

So, 16/0.005

=3200 Pa

Answer 2

answer: 0.32

explanation: Force= 16 N

area= 50m²

Pressure= Force/ Area

pressure= 16/50

pressure= 8/25 pascal

pressure= 0.32 pascal

hope it helps
