\sf{\underline{\underline{\qquad \clubsuit \: Given :\clubsuit\qquad}}} \\

  • Force = 50 N
  • Area = 5 m²


\sf{\underline{\underline{\qquad \clubsuit \: To \:Find :\clubsuit\qquad}}} \\

  • The pressure exerted by the fluid = ?


\sf{\underline{\underline{\qquad \clubsuit \: Solution :\clubsuit\qquad}}} \\


:\implies\sf Pressure = (Force)/(Area) \\ \\ \\


:\implies\sf Pressure = (50)/(5) \\ \\ \\


:\implies \underline{ \boxed{\sf Pressure = 10 \:pascal }}\\ \\ \\


\therefore{\underline{\textsf{The pressure exerted by the fluid is \textbf{10 pascal}}}}. \\
