Given :-
- Area is 136 cm²
- Pressure is 17 pascal
To find :-
- Force
Solution :-
As we know that ,
Pressure is defined as force exerted per unit area is called pressure . So,
Pressure = Force/Area
Units of pressure is Newton /m²
---------------------------------------------
So, but According to the question area is in "cm²" So, we shall convert into m²
1m = 100cm
1cm = 1/100 m
So,
136cm² = 136/100 m ×100 m
= 136/10,000 m²
136 cm²= 0.0136 m²
Area = 0.0136 cm²
Substituting the values ,
Pressure = Force /Area
17 = Force /0.0136
Force = 0.0136 ×17
Force =0.2312 N
So, force acting on the body is 0.2312 N
