Question

I REALLY NEED HELP!!!!

4. The pressure under the tyres of a tractor is 60 000 Pa. The pressed area is 0.5 m². How much
is the weight of the tractor?

Answer 1

weight = 30000 Newton

Given:

• pressure: 60,000 Pa

• area: 0.5 m²

========================

`\sf pressure \ (Pa)=(force \ (N))/(area \ (m^2))`

`\dashrightarrow \sf \ 60 000 = (force)/(0.5)`

`\dashrightarrow \sf \ force =60 000 *0.5`

`\dashrightarrow \sf \ force =30000 \ N`

========================

Weight is the force due to gravity.

Thus, force = gravity = 30000 N
