Question

Solve the following answer:
F=5
A=10m2

Answer 1

Correct Question:

If force = 5N and Area = 10m² , then find pressure acting on object

Given:

• Force = 5N
• Area = 10m/s²

To Find:

• Pressure

Solution:

Using

P = F/a

Where

• F : force = 5N
• P : pressure = ?
• a : area = 10m²

Substituting the values we have

→ P = F/a

→ P = 5/10

→ P = 1/2

→ P = 0.5 N/m²

Hence, pressure acting on the body 0.5 N/m² = 0.5 pa

Conversion:

How N/m² = pa

→ N = kgm/s²

Pa = kgm/s²/m²

Pascal = kgm³/s² = pa

Answer 2

Answer :

Correct question :

Force exerted on a body is 5 Newtons and area is 10m². Find pressure exerted.

Solution :

Given that force is 5 N and area is 10 m²

We have to find pressure exerted.

We know formula :

→ Pressure (P) = Force(F)/Area(A)

Substituting values,

→ Pressure (P) = 5/10

→ Pressure (P) = 0.5

→ Pressure (P) = 0.5 N/m² or, 0.5 P

∴ Pressure exerted = 0.5 Pascals.

[Note : Pressure is always calculated as N/m² → P]

Question is incomplete. So it can be of many ways.

Another way to correct the question :

Correct question :

Force exerted on a body is 5 N and acceleration is 10 m/s². Find mass of body.

From the data we have :

Force (F) = 5 N

Acceleration (a) = 10 m/s²

Now we know Newton's 2nd law of motion :

→ Force (F) = Mass (M) × Acceleration (a)

Substituting values,

→ 5 = Mass × 10

→ Mass = 5/10

→ Mass = 0.5 g

∴ Mass of body = 0.5 gram.
