Question

Calculate the pressure if a force of 60 N acts on a surface of an area of 2cm square

Answer 1

Answer:

Pressure - Force relationship

Explanation:

★ PRESSURE ( P ) = Force ( F ) / Area ( A )

» Given ;

- Force ( F ) = 60 N

- Area = 2 cm² = 2 × 10-⁴ m²

__________________________________________________________________________________

★ Pressure ( P ) = Force ( F ) / Area ( A )

= 60 / 2 × 10-⁴

= 30 × 10⁴ Pascal's

★ Pressure ( P ) = 300 K P ( Kilo pascals ) ★

Answer 2

P = N÷A

P= 60÷ 2cm²

Convert 2 cm² into m²

= 0.0002

= 60÷2 × 100 × 100

= 30×10,000

= 300,000
