Question

Calculate the pressure exerted by an object , which applies a force of 6.5 N , and the dimensions are 35 cm x 15 cm

ANSWER FAST

Answer 1

Since pressure=Force/Area

when it is placed upright its length and breadth will be 10 & 5 respectively

so area=10*5=50cm2=

0.005m2

Pressure=2.5N/0.005m2

=500N m-2

in case b it is placed on widest base i.e. 25cm

so area =25*10=2500cm2

=0.25m2

Pressure=2.5/0.25=10N m-2
