Question

An elephant exerts a force of 20000N on a area of 1000cm²sq. Find the pressure produce on the surface ?​

Answer 1

Answer :

• 200000N/m² is the Pressure produce on the surface

Given :

• Force (f) = 20000N
• Area (a) = 1000 cm²

To find :

• The pressure produce on the surface

Solution :

Given,

• Area = 1000cm² , 1m² = 10000cm², Area = 0.1m²

As we know that

• Pressure = Force / Area

→ Pressure = Force / Area

→ Pressure = 20000/0.1

→ Pressure = 200000N/m²

Hence, 200000N/m² is the Pressure produce on the surface

More Explanation :

• 1000m = 1km
• 1m = 100cm
• SI unit of Area is m²
