Question

When a force of 15 N acts on a surface, it produce a pressure of 1000 Pa. The area of surface then must be​

Answer 1

Answer:

1 Pascal = 1 Newton / Meter^2

Pressure = Force / Area

500 Pa = 5 N / A

100 1/m^2 = 1/A

A = 1/100 m^2

you can leave that as your answer, or you can convert:

100 cm / m

10000 cm^2/m^2

A = 1/100 m^2 * 10000 cm^2 / m^2

A = 100 cm^2

Answer 2

Answer:

P=F/A , therefore 1000=15/a

i. e. 0.015m²
