⋄A force of 16N is distributed uniformly on one edge of 8cm. Find the pressure on this surface .
___________________
✰ Given :-
⋄ Force = 16N
⋄ Edge of Cube = 8cm
✰To Find
⋄ Pressure??
✰ Solution :-
➠ Area (a) of one surface of cube = (8 cm)^3= 64×10^-4 m²
➠ Pressure (p) = Force/Area
➠ p = F/a
➠ p = 16N / 64×10^-4m²
➠ p= 10^4/4
➠ p= 2500 Pa.
∴ Hence, the pressure on this surface is 2500 Pa.

Answer:
Force = 16 N
(Newton is the SI unit of Force)
Edge of surface = 8 Cm
Area of Surface = 8 × 8 = 64 Cm^2
Now , Formula used =
Pressure = Force / Area
As force given is 16 N and Area we find is 64
we put it in given formula to get pressure
Pressure = 16 / 64
Pressure = 1/4
= 0.25 N/Cm^2
