Question

A force of 500 N acts on an area of 200 square centimeter. Calculate the pressure exerted​

Answer 1

given data,

We will convert 2.5cm square to meter square =0.00025

force=500N

area=0.00025m

Pressure is given as;

P=

A

F

=

0.00025m

500N

P=2×10

6

Pa

Answer 2

Answer:

You must know that Pressure= Force/ Area

So we have ,

Force= 500N

Area=1 Square cm = 10^-4 Square meter

the area must be 1 Square cm .

So we get Pressure=

5*10^6 Newton/Square meter = 5*10^6 Pascal.
