A block of wood is kept on table top. The mass of wooden block is 5 kg and its dimensions are 40cm×20cm×10cm. Find the pressure exerted by the wooden block on the table top, if it is made to lie on the table top with its sides of dimensions (a) 20cm×10cm and (b) 40cm×20cm

A

(a) P=2440Nm−2 (b) P=610.5Nm−2

B

(a) P=2450Nm−2 (b) P=612.5Nm−2

C

(a) P=2460Nm−2 (b) P=618.5Nm−2

D

(a) P=2470Nm−2 (b) P=712.5Nm−2

Correct option is B)

Mass of the wooden block, m=5kg

Thrust due to wooden block,

Mg=5kg×9.8ms−2=49N

(a) Surface area of 20cm×10cmsurface,

A=(20×10)cm2

=(0.2×0.1)m2

=0.02m2

P=Amg

P=0.0
