Question

calculate the pressure exerted by a body of weight 60 kgs having surface area 15 CM square on the ground ​

Answer 1

Answer:

pressure =force/ area

60/15

= 4 pascal

Answer 2

The pressure is 400000 pascals.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : A body of weight 60 kgs having surface area 15 cm square on the ground .

To find : Calculate the pressure ?

Solution :

Mass of the person = 60 kg

Weight of the person $W=mg$

$W=60\times 10$

$W=600\ N$

The surface area is 15 cm².

Converting into meter square,

$A=15\times 10^{-4}$

Pressure is force per uni area.

i.e. $P=\frac{F}{A}$

$P=\frac{600}{15\times 10^{-4}}$

$P=400000$

Therefore, the pressure is 400000 pascals.
