Question

Calculate the pressure when a force of 40 Newton is exerted on an area of 25 cm 2

Answer 1

Pressure=Force/area

=40/25

=1.6P

Answer 2

Explanation:

$\Huge\red{\mathfrak{ To find }}$

Pressure

Force = 40N

Area =

$25 {cm}^{2}$

$\Huge\red{\mathfrak{ Answer }}$

Pressure =

$\frac{40}{ \frac{25}{100 \times 100} } {m}^{2} \\ \\ = \frac{40 \times 100 \times 100}{25} \\ \\ = \frac{40 \times 4 \times 100}{1} \\ \\ = 160 \times 100 = 1600 \: pascal$

hope it helps ✌
