Question

If the air inside a balloon exerts a force of 1.5 N on an area of 0.5m^2 what is the pressure inside the ballon

0.5N/m2

1.5N/m2


3N/m2

Answer 1

Answer: P = F/A = 1.5 N / 0.5 m^2 = 3 N/m^2

Answer 2

Pressure applied on a system is calculated by dividing the force by the area perpendicular to the direction of the force. It is expressed as:

P = F/A = 1.5 N / 0.5 m^2 = 3 N/m^2

Therefore, the correct answer from the choices is the last option. Hope this answers the question. Have a nice day.
