Answer:
Pressure exerted = 500 Pa
Explanation:
The formula for pressure is as follows:
[tex]Pressure = \frac{Force \space\ applied}{Area}[/tex]
In this case,
Force applied = 100N
Area = 40cm × 50cm = 2000cm² = 2000 × 10⁻⁴ = 0.2m²
Substituting these values into the formula:
Pressure = [tex]\frac{100}{0.2}[/tex]
⇒ Pressure = 500 Pa
Answer:
500Pa
Explanation:
Pressure = Force / Area where area is in [tex]m^{2}[/tex].
Firstly, lets convert both area dimensions into metrers.
40cm = 40/100 m = 0.4m
50cm = 50/100 m = 0.5m
Area of Bottom area of box = 0.4m x 0.5m = [tex]0.2m^{2}[/tex]
Pressure = [tex]\frac{100N}{0.2m^{2} }[/tex]
= 500Pa
