Question

How much Pressure will be produced by $80N$ force acting on $4m^2$area?

• A. 300Pa
• B. 20Pa
• C. 84Pa
• D. 76Pa

Answer 1

The correct option is B

20Pa

Step 1: Given Data

Given data:

Force(F) =$80N$

Area(A) =$4m^2$

Step 2: Finding Pressure (P):

Pressure is given by the formula:

$P=\frac{Force\left(Thrust\right)}{Area}=\frac{80N}{4m^2}=20Pa$

Thus the pressure applied is $20Pa$

Hence Option(B) is the correct answer.
