Question

force =10 newton.area=16 meter square.pressure=?

Answer 1

$\fbox{\bold{\mathsf{Pressure:}}}$    

Pressure is defined as the force applied on an unit area.  

The SI unit of pressure is Pascal represented by Pa.

The SI unit of pressure is Pascal represented by Pa.

The phenomenon of pressure was discovered by one of the French scientist named Blaise Pascal.

 Given that,  

Force (F) = 10 N  

Area (a) = 16 m²    

To find,    

Pressure = ?    

We know that,  

$\fbox{\bold{\mathsf{Pressure\:(Pa) = \frac{Force\:(F)}{Area\:(a)}}}}$

By substituting the given values,

$\mathsf{Pressure\:(Pa) = \frac{10\:N}{16\:m^2}}$

$\mathsf{Pressure\:(Pa) = \frac{\cancel{10}}{\cancel{16}}}$

$\mathsf{Pressure\:(Pa) = \frac{5}{6}}$

$\fbox{\bold{\mathsf{Pressure\:(Pa) = 0.84\:Pa}}}$    

Therefore, the pressure is approximately 0.84 Pascal.
