Question

Calculate the pressure product by a force of 800 Newton acting on an area of 2m2

Answer 1

Solution :

⏭ Given:

✏ Applied force = 800N

✏ Area = 2$\sf{m^2}$

⏭ To Find:

✏ Pressure due to perpendicular force

⏭ Concept:

✏ Pressure is defined as ratio of applied perpendicular force to the surface area.

⏭ Formula:

✏ Relation between pressure, applied force and area is given by...

$\bigstar \: \boxed{ \tt{ \pink{Pressure = \frac{Force}{Area}}}} \: \bigstar$

⏭ Calculation:

$\implies \sf \: P = \dfrac{800}{2} \\ \\ \implies \: \boxed{ \tt{ \orange{Pressure = 400 \: N {m}^{ - 2}}}}$

⏭ Additional information:

• Pressure is scalar quantity.
• For calculation of pressure, only perpendicular force is considered.
• Scalar quantity has only magnitude.

Answer 2

Answer:-

Given:

Force = 800 N

Area = 2 m²

We know that,

Pressure = Force/Area

Pressure = 800 / 2

Pressure = 400 N/m²
