Question

What is the cross-section of an object that experiences a stress of 6,000 N/m2 when a force of 2,400 newtons is applied to it?

Answer 1

$Formula\ for\ stress:\\\\ stress=\frac{applied\ force}{cross\ section\ area\ of\ object}\\\\ force=2400N\\ stress=6000\frac{N}{m^2}\\\\ 6000=\frac{2400}{cross\ section}\\\\ 6000*cross\ section=2400\ \ \ |Divide\ by\ 6000\\\\ \boxed{cross\ section=0,4m^2}$
