Question

when a force of 500n acts on a surface it produces a pressure of 500pa .find out the area of the surface

Answer 1

Answer:

Explanation:

FORCE , F= 500 N

PRESSURE , P = 500 PA

AREA ,A =?

PRESSURE = FORCE / AREA

AREA = FORCE / PRESSURE

AREA = 500/500

AREA = 1 M².

AREA ON WHICH THE FORCE IS ACTING, A = 1 M².

HOPE THIS HELPS.

Answer 2

Given:

• Force,F = 500 N

• pressure , P = 500 Pa

To find out

Find the area of the surface

Formula used:

Pressure = Force/Area /

Solution:

Pressure = Force/Area

⇒ 500 = 500/Area

⇒ Area = 500/500

⇒ Area = 1 m²

Thus,the area of surface is 1 m².

Extra information:

Pressure: Pressure is the force acting perpendicularly on a unit area of the object.

• S.I unit of measuring pressure = Newtons per square meter ( N/m² ) or Pascal ( Pa )

• 1 Pascal = 1 Newtons per square meter
