Answer:
Pressure is defined as the force exerted (on a surface) per unit surface area. Pressure is a scalar.
P = F / A, Its unit is Pascal = Newton / meter². There are also some other units in use for pressure.
1) F = P * A = 50, 000 Pascals * 0.5 meter = 25, 000 Pascals or N/m²
2) Surface Area A = Force / Pressure = 100 N / 500 pa = 1/5 m²
3) Area = 30 cm² = 30 / (100*100) meter²
Pressure = F / A = 300 N / (3/1000) = 100 * 1000 pa = 1 * 10⁵ pa
4 ) Area = 1 cm² = (1/100)² meter²
Force needed = P A = 20, 000 pa * (1/100²) m² = 2 Newtons
GIVEN :-
Pressure applied = 10 Pa
Area of the surface = 10000 cm²
TO FIND :-
The force exerted on the area.
SOLUTION :-
We know,
Pressure exerted = Force applied/Area
Putting the known values :-
⇒10 = F/10000
⇒F = 10000 × 10
⇒F = 100000 N
Therefore, a pressure of 100000 N is applied.
