Question

A force of 250 newton is applied on an object of an area of 200 cm square . calculate the magnitude of pressure (step by step)

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

125 newton / meter square

Answer 2

Answer:

Basic concepts :

Force is push or pull that causes an Acceleration in a body. Basically Force is the cause of change of state. Force exerted on unit area, is the Pressure exerted on the body.

Step-by-step explanation:

Solution :

In the given question,

Force applied = 250N

Area of the object = 200cm² =2 m2

Both are in S. I. Units. So need to convert into any other system.

Pressure exerted by a force on a object of Area is given by, pressure=force

area

therefore, pressure=250

2

=125.

Therefore,

A force of 250N is applied to an object of area 2m square. The pressure is 125.
