Hey there !!!

1m=100cm

1/100m=1cm

Area = 20*10cm²= 200* (1/100)²m²

=200/10000

=2/100

=0.02
Pressure = Force / Area

=70/0.02

=70/0.02

=7000/2

=3500 Pascal .

hope helped !

sanasubhani12ourwhq: '=70/200 ^10-2' In this line, what do you mean by '^' and why did you subtract 2 from 10?

Area = 20*10 cm²= 200cm² = 0.02 m²

P = F/A
= 70N / 0.02m²
=3500 N/m2
= 3500 Pa

sanasubhani12ourwhq: Why did you turn 200 cm2 into a decimal number??
Incredible29: bcoz Pa is N/m²
Incredible29: not N/cm²
sanasubhani12ourwhq: Ah! I get it I get it. Thanks, buddy!
Incredible29: welcome frnd
