Question

Calculated the pressure exerted when a force of 100N is applied on a area of 25m2​

Answer 1

• F=100N
• A=25m^2

`\\ \rm\longmapsto P=(F)/(A)`

`\\ \rm\longmapsto P=(100)/(25)`

`\\ \rm\longmapsto P=4Pa`

Answer 2

P = 4[Pa]

Step-by-step explanation:

Pressure is defined as the relationship between Force over area. So we can use the following equation.

`P=F/A`

where:

P = pressure [Pa] (units of Pascals)

F = force = 100 [N]

A = area = 25 [m²]

Now replacing:

`P=100/25\\P=4[Pa]`
