Question

when the wind blows it creates a pressure on any force it blows against. A large pressure window has an area of 3.5m2. If the wind causes a pressure of 2000Pa on the window what force acts on it?

Answer 1

Given:-

• Area of the window = 3.5 m²
• Pressure generated = 2000 Pa

To Find: Force exerted by the air to the window.

We know,

P = F/A

where,

• P = Pressure,
• F = Force &
• A = Area.

Similarly,

F = PA

→ F = (2000 Pa)(3.5 m²)

→ F = (2000 N/m²)(3.5 m²)

→ F = (200 N)(35)

→ F = 7000 N (Ans.)

Answer 2

The force acting on the window is 7000N.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the formula for pressure of solid is P = Force/Area. Then, you have to substitute the values into the formula :

`pressure = (force)/(area)`

`let \: pressure = 2000,area = 3.5`

`2000 = (force)/(3.5)`

`2000 * 3.5 = force`

`force = 7000N`
