Question

calculate the force exerted if 5000Pa is exerted on 500 cm square area

Answer 1

Answer:

This problem can be solved by the relation as given by;

Pressure = Force/ Area

Given data;

Pressure P =5000 Pascals

Area A = 500 cm²= 0.05 m²

Substituting the data into the relation;

P = F/A

F= P*A = 5000 Pa* 0.05 m² = 250 Newtons  

The pressure of 5000 Pascals exerts a force of 250 Newtons on a unit area of 500 cm².

Answer 2

• Pressure=5000Pa
• Area=500cm^2=0.05m^2

We know

$\boxed{\sf P=\dfrac{F}{A}}$

• P denotes to Pressure
• F deontes to Force
• A denotes to Area

$\\ \sf\longmapsto Force=Pressure\times Area$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto Force=5000(0.05)$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto Force=250N$
