Force and Pressure
1. A cube of side 0.2 m rests on the
floor, as shown. Given that the cube
has a mass of 50 kg, the pressure
exerted by the cube on the floor
is
(Take g - 10 N kg-1)
(a) 25 Nm-2
(c) 1250 Nm-2
(b) 250 Nm-2
(d) 12500 Nm-2

Answer:
(d) 12500 N m^-2
Explanation:
Here,
- side of the cube, a = 0.2 m
- mass of the cube, m = 50 kg,
- g = 10 N kg^-1
Pressure exerted by the cube,
P = force/area of the cube
= mg/a*a
= 50*10/0.2*0.2
= 12500 N m^-2

Answer:
Force and Pressure

(Take g - 10 N kg-1)
(a) 25 Nm-2
(c) 1250 Nm-2
(b) 250 Nm-2
(d) 12500 NNm-2
Explanation:
here force applied by the cube on the floor (F) =50×10=500N
now are of the cube in contact with the surface
A=0.2×0.2=0.04m2
Also pressure(P)=F/A
P =500N/0.04m2
Therefore, option D is the answer.
