Calculate the force applied that can can exert a pressure of 8 pa on an area of 152 cm^2 ?

Open in App

Solution

We know

pressure ∝ Force

and pressure ∝ 1 / Area

or pressure = Thrust / Area

=> 1 Pascal = Nm-²

well given that

pressure ,P = 8 Pa

and area , A = 152 cm² = 152/10000 m² = 0.0152 m²

we can conclude a formula
F = pA

F = 80.0152 = 0.1216 N
