Answer:

P = 3 Pa

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

Force exerted by the car, F = 9 N

The area of the car, A = 3 m²

We need to find the pressure exerted by the car. We know that pressure is equal to the force per unit area such that,


P=(F)/(A)\\\\P=(9\ N)/(3\ m^2)\\\\P=3\ Pa

So, the pressure exerted by the car is equal to 3 Pa.
