Question

A medic applies a force of 65 n to a 0.02 m2 area that is bleeding. what pressure did she apply? answer in units of pa

Answer 1

The medic applied a pressure of 3250 Pascal (Pa) to the bleeding area by exerting a force of 65 Newtons (N) over an area of 0.02 square meters (m²).

Step-by-step explanation:

The question requires us to calculate the pressure applied by a medic on a bleeding area. Pressure is defined as the force applied per unit area and is given by the formula:

Pressure = Force / Area

In this case, the medic applies a force of 65 N to an area of 0.02 m2. Using the formula for pressure, we get:

Pressure = 65 N / 0.02 m2 = 3250 Pa

So, the medic applied a pressure of 3250 Pa on the bleeding area.

Answer 2

Pressure = (force) / (area)

Pressure = (65 N) / (0.02 m²)

Pressure = (65 / 0.02) (N / m²)

Pressure = 3,250 N/m²

Note: 1 N/m² is called 1 Pascal, so that medic is leaning into it with a pressure of

3,250 Pa
