Question

A force of 60n acts on a body having an area of cross section 5cm^2. calculate the pressure exerted by the body.

Answer 1

$\huge{{\huge{\boxed{\huge{\red\star\mathfrak\purple{\large{\underline{\underline{ Answer! }}}}}}}}}$

Force= 60N

Area = 5 cm²

As, we know the formula for pressure

$\bold{pressure = \frac{force}{area} }$

$\bold{ = \frac{60}{5} }$

$\bold{ = 12 \: pa}$

Note:-

The unit of pressure is Pascal (pa) or N/cm²
