Question

If a body having 10 square cm as its area of cross-section exerts a pressure of 50,000 Pa then the force acting on the body is​

Answer 1

Answer:

force is pressure × area

50000 × 10 /10000 = 50 N

we divide by 100× 100 as area is in cm^2

Answer 2

Answer:

Pressure on the body = 50,000pa

Force or thrust = 100N

To find,

Area of the body =?

We know that,

Pressure =

Area

Force

By substituting the values we get,

a=

50,000

100

a=0.002m
