Question

Calculate the pressure when a force of 200 N is exerted on an area of 10
sq.metre.​

Answer 1

Given: Force applied is given as: 200 N

Now, we know that the Pressure is the force applied perpendicular to the surface of an object per unit area.

or Pressure = Force/ Area

(a) Area = 10m2

P = 200N/10m2

or P = 20 Nm2 or 20 Pascal
