Question 19 of 35
Calculate the force applied in newtons) if a pressure of 150Pa is acting on an area of 25m².

Answer 1

Answer:

F = 3750 N

Explanation:

Given that,

Pressure, P = 150 Pa

Area, a = 25m²

We need to find the force applied. We know that, pressure is equal to the force acting per unit area. It can be given by :

$P=\dfrac{F}{A}\\\\F=P\times A\\\\F=150\ Pa\times 25\ m^2\\\\F=3750\ N$

So, the required force is 3750 N.
