Answer:

$A=20\ m^2$

Step-by-step explanation:

Pressure

Is a measure of how much force is applied perpendicular over a given area.

It is calculated by dividing the amount of force being applied F by the area over which it is being applied A:

$\displaystyle P=(F)/(A)$

The SI unit for pressure is the Pascal (Pa), equivalent to
$1\ Nw/m^2$

A pressure of 300 Pa is being exerted over an area that experiences a force of 6000 N. We are required to calculate the value of the area.

If we know the pressure and the force, we solve the above equation for A;

$\displaystyle A=(F)/(P)$

Substituting the given values:

$\displaystyle A=(6000)/(300)$

$\mathbf{A=20\ m^2}$
