Question

What is the area of a car that touches the road if the car’s weight on that tire is 288 N and the pressure exerted on the road is 36 Pa?

Answer 1

Answer:64m2

Step-by-step explanation:

As we know pressure is equal to force divided by unit area so if we rearrange the equation and isolate area we get area is equal to force divided by pressure exerted. By putting values we get 64m2.

Answer 2

Car's touch area = 64 m²

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Weight of car = 3,072 N

Pressure = 48 pa

Find:

Car's touch area

Computation:

Area = Force / Pressure

Car's touch area = 3,072 / 48

Car's touch area = 64 m²
