Question

Calculate the pressure produced by a force of 800 N acting on an area of 2.0 m2.​

Answer 1

Gɪᴠᴇɴ :-

• Force (F) = 800 N
• Area (A) = 2 m²

ᴛᴏ ғɪɴᴅ :-

• Pressure (P)

sᴏʟᴜᴛɪᴏɴ :-

We know that,

➭ Pressure × Area = Force

➭ P × A = F

So,

➭ P × 2 = 800

➭ P = 800/2

➭ P = 400 N/m² or pascals

Hence,

• Pressure is 400 pascals

Answer 2

Pressure = 400 pascals .

Given :-

• Force (F) = 800N
• Area (A) = 2.0m²

To Find :-

• Pressure (P) = ?

Solution :-

As we know that,

F = P × A

( Where, F is Force and P is Pressure or A is Area)

=> 800 = P × 2.0

=> P = 800/2.0

=> P = 400N/m²

.°. P = 400pascals.
