Question

A solid object weighs 250N. When placed on a wooden plank, the area of contact is found to be 10 meter square. Find the pressure exerted by the solid object on the wooden plank.



​

Answer 1

Answer:

weight of body = 250 N

area of contact = 10 m²

since the units are all in SI , there is no need to convert them.

pressure =  force×area

here , the force is equal to the weight.

pressure = 250 × 10

              = 2500 m²

hence , the pressure exerted by the object on the plank is 2500 N/m².

Answer 2

Answer:

weight of body = 250 N

area of contact = 10 m²

since the units are all in SI, there is no need to convert them.

pressure = forcexarea

here, the force is equal to the weight.

pressure = 250 × 10

= 2500 m²

hence, the pressure exerted by the object on the plank is 2500 N/m².
