A wooden block with 10cm×20cm×30cm has a mass 600gm. find maximum and minimum pressure exert on the ground when this s block is placed in different positions.
Answers
Answer:
when force is constant, pressure ∞ 1/Area.
Therefore, pressure is maximum when area is minimum and vice versa.
By calculating the area of three faces, we get,
⇒A₁ = (20×10)= 200 sq m.
⇒A₂ = (10×5) = 50 sq m.
⇒A₃ = (20×5) = 100 sq m.
∴A₁ is maximum and A₂ is minimum.
∴Minimum pressure P₁ = F/A₁ = 30/200 = 0.15 Nm⁻².
∴Maximum pressure P₂ = F/A₂ = 30/50 = 0.6 Nm⁻². (Ans)
