Question

Determine the pressure when a force of 200 N acts on area. 2 a. 20 m2 b. 8 m2

Answer 1

Dear Student,
Pressure is Force per unit area.
$$\begin{gathered} P=\frac{F}{a} \\ \left(a\right),Fora=20m^2 \\ P=\frac{200}{20}=10\frac{N}{m^2}=10Pa \\ \left(b\right),Fora=8m^2 \\ P=\frac{200}{8}=25\frac{N}{m^2}=25Pa \end{gathered}$$
