Question

Over what area should a force of 100N act to produce a pressure of 500pa

Answer 1

Hi friend,

Pressure=Force/Area
Area=Force/pressure

Force=100N
Pressure=500Pa
=500N/m^2

Area= 100/500N/m^2
=100N/m^2/500N

Then, area= 1/5m^2=0.2m^2

Answer is 0.2 in decimals and 1/5 in fraction.

Hope it helps.............

Answer 2

Given here ,
Force = 100N
Pressure = 500pa = 500 N/m^2

We know that ,
Pressure = force / area

⇒Area = force / pressure
            = 100 (N) / 500 (N/m^2)
            = 1/5 (m^2)
