Question

Calculate the force applied that can exert a pressure of 8 pa on an area of 152 cm^2.

Answer 1

Hey there

We know

pressure ∝ Force

and pressure ∝ 1 / Area

or pressure = Thrust / Area

=> 1 Pascal = Nm-²

well given that

pressure ,P = 8 Pa

and area , A = 152 cm² = 152/100 m² = 1.52 m²

we can conclude a formula

$\bf P = \frac{F}{A}$
$\bf F = AP \\ \\ \bf putting \: the \: given \: value \: \\ \\ \bf = 1.52 \times 8 = 12.16 \: N$

Hope this helps you ☺

Answer 2

Answer

Solution

We know

pressure ∝ Force

and pressure ∝ 1 / Area

or pressure = Thrust / Area

=> 1 Pascal = Nm-²

well given that

pressure ,P = 8 Pa

and area , A = 152 cm² = 152/10000 m² = 0.0152 m²

we can conclude a formula

F = p*A

F = 8*0.0152 = 0.1216 N
