Question

if weight of the atmosphere is x and the pressure exerted on an area is y find the area​

Answer 1

Answer:

xy is the area of the weight of the atmosphere

Explanation:

x is a side y is a side

Answer 2

The area is equal to $\frac{x}{y}$.

Pressure is defined as the amount of force acting per unit area.

Mathematically, $Pressure = \frac{force}{area}$

Weight is the amount of force exerted due to mass. For example, a body has mass m, the force exerted by the body will be equal to mg, where g is the acceleration due to gravity.

The value of pressure given is y, and the weight of the atmosphere is x. Substituting the values in the formula for pressure, we have

                               $y = \frac{x}{area}\\Area = \frac{x}{y}$

Therefore, the area over which the given force is acting is $\frac{x}{y}m^{2}$
