Step-by-step explanation:

Given:-

Force :- 200000N

area:- 2m²

We know,


\fbox \color{red} pressure :- force / area

200000/2 Pascal

= 1000000 pascal

Question :-

  • How much Pressure is exerted on a Portion of your Car that has an Area of 2 with a Force of 2,00,000 N pressed down on it ?

Answer :-

  • The Pressure is 1,00,000 Pascal .

Explanation :-

As per the provided information in the given question, we have been given that the Area of the Car is 2 meter² . The Force is given as 2,00,000 Newton . And, we have been asked to calculate the Pressure .

For calculating the Pressure , we will use the Formula :-


\bigstar \: \: \: \boxed{ \sf{ \: Pressure \: = \: (Force)/(Area) \: }}

Therefore , by Substituting the given values in the above Formula :-


\dag \: \: \: \sf {Pressure \: = \: \frac {Force}{Area}}


\longmapsto \: \: \: \sf {Pressure \: = \: \frac {200000}{2}}


\longmapsto \: \: \: \textbf {\textsf {Pressure \: = \: 100000}}

Hence :-

  • Pressure = 1,00,000 Pascal .
