Question

How much pressure is exerted by a statue weighing 20N and having a rectangular base of 20cm X 35 cm?

Answer 1

Answer:

285.7 N/m2 ( I guess)

Explanation:

Pressure=force/ area

Force: 20 N

Area in metre:

20 cm= .20 m

35 cm=.35 m

So area = .20 × .35

=> .0700 m

So pressure

Pressure = 20 / .0700

=> 20× 10000 / 700

=> 285.7 N/ m2

Hope it helps!!!
