Question

The area of the bottom of a book kept on table is 0.50 m square and weight is25 Newton then what will be pressure exerted by book on the table

Answer 1

Explanation:

pressure=force/area

25/0.50=50pa

Answer 2

Pressure exerted by book on the table is 50 Pa

According to the question,

Force exerted by the book  (F) = Weight of book = 25N

Also, the area of the book (A) = 0.50 m^2

So, the pressure (P) applied by the book is given as:

P = (F) / (A)

= (25/0.50) Pa (Pascal)

= 50 Pa

Therefore total pressure = P = 50 Pa
