Question

Calculate the force applied (in newtons) if a pressure of 1000Pa is acting on an area of 85m2.

Answer 1

Answer:

85000 Newtons

Explanation:

Given:

• Presure acting on the surface = 1000 Pa
• Surface area in contact to the object = 85 m²

To find:

• Force applied on the object in newtons

Pressure = Force/Area

1000 Pa = force / 85

Force = 1000×85

Force = 85000 N

The force applied on the object is equal to 85000 Newtons

• The SI unit of pressure is pascals (Pa)
• The SI unit of force is newtons (N)
• Force = Pressure ×Area

Answer 2

Answer:

Explanation:

Given :-

Pressure acting on surface = 1000 Pa

Area of surface to object = 85 m²

To Find :-

Force applied.

Formula to be used :-

We know that,

Pressure = Force/Area

Force = Pressure × Area

Solution :-

Putting all the values, we get

Force = Pressure × Area

⇒ Force = 1000 × 85

⇒ Force = 85000 N

Hence, the force applied is 85000 Newtons.

Important Term :-

Force - Force is that agency which can change the state of rest or of uniform motion or shape or direction of motion of any body.
