Question

A force of 20 N acts on an area of 50cm2
. Calculate the value of
pressure in pascal

Answer 1

$pressure \: = \frac{force}{area} \\ \\ force \: = \: 20 \: (newton) \\ area \: = 50 {cm}^{2} \\ \\ applying \: formula... \\ pressure \: = \frac{20}{50} \\ pressure \: = 0.4(newton)$

pls mention the units... I wasn't able to type N ...

cheers!
