Question

A force of 200N can produce a pressure of 20000Pa . Calculate the area in cm2 on which the force shall act to exert the pressure

Answer 1

Answer:

p:F/a

:2000:200/a

thus area :1/100m square

: 100 cm spuare

Answer 2

Area is 100 cm²

Given,

Force, F = 200 N

Pressure, P = 20000 Pa

To Find,

Area, A

Solution,

Pressure is measured by dividing the amount of force being applied by the area over which it is being applied since pressure is a measure of how much force is applied over a specific region of an item

The formula for finding pressure is given by:

P = F/A

⇒ A = F/P

⇒ A = 200/20000

⇒ A = 0.01 m²

⇒ A = 100 cm²
