If 30 N of force is exerted over an area of 20 m2, how much pressure is being applied

1.5 pascals

50 pascals

600 pascals

Verified Answer :

The formula to find the Pressure is: P (Pressure) = F(Force) / A(Area)

Since F = 30 N, and A = 20 m2

So \(P = \frac{F}{A} = \frac{30}{20} = 1.5\)

So, the pressure being applied is 1.5 Pascals.

Hope this helps :)
