Answer:

5000N

Step-by-step explanation:

PRESSURE

This is the force acting normally per unit area.

PRESSURE=FORCE/AREA.

From our question.

Given data:

Pressure=250000

Area=0.02m^2

RTF=Force

Solution

P=F/A

F=P×A

=250,000 N/m^2 × 0.02m^2

= 5000N

hope it helps you.*★★

Answer:

5000 N

Step-by-step explanation:

F = pressure * area

= 250 000 Pa * .02 m^2

= 250000 N/m^2 * .02 m^2 = 5000 N
