• meaning of 1 Pa(pascal) is nothing it is just a unit of pressure named After scientist Blaise pascal
• m = 40 kg
g = 10m/s²
F = mg = 400N
, Now , P = F/A = 400/0.04 = 10000Pa
• m = 40 kg
g = 10m/s²
F = mg = 400N
, Now , P = F/A = 400/0.04 = 10000Pa

1 Pascal is defines as the force of one Newton exerted on a body of area one square unit.
Force= mass of the body* acceleration.
Here, the acceleration is taken as the acceleration due to gravity.
Therefore,
Force = mass* acceleration due to gravity.
The acceleration due to gravity is denoted as g; and, it's value is 9.8 m s⁻².
Therefore,
F=mg
=40*10
= 400 N
Pressure= Force exerted by the body/ area
= 400/0.04
= 40000/4 = 10000 Pa
Thank you.
Hope this may help you.
