Question

A man exerts a pressure of 14Pa by applying a force of 70N on a box. Calculate the area over which the force is applied.​

Answer 1

Answer:

The Area is 5 m^2.

Explanation:

Pressure = 14 Pa

Force = 70 N

Area = Pressure = Force/Area

= 14 = 70/a

= 14a = 70

= a = 5 m^2

Hope this helps.

Answer 2

$\huge\mathfrak\orange{ANSWER}$

$\underline\bold{Given}$

${Pressure\:exerted\:by\:the\:man\:=\:14\:Pa}$

${Force\:applied\:=\:70\:N}$

$\underline\bold{Formula}$

$Pressure\:=\frac{Force}{Area}$

$\bold{According\:to\:question}$

=> 14Pa = 70N / A

=> A = 70/14

=> A = 5m²

$\bold{Therefore}$

Total area = 5m²
