Question

A solid weighs 800 N calculate the pressure exerted by solid on a surface,if the area of contact is 400 cm 2

Answer 1

Answer:

pressure - 800 N

Area - 400cm2

Explanation:

the formula of pressure is

Pressure= Force/Area

pressure of solid=800/400 =200N

Answer 2

Answer:

20000 Pa

Explanation:

We know that Pressure = Force/ area

Force=800 N

area in m^2 = 0.04 m^2

So Pressure = 800/0.04 = 20000 Pa
