A force of 600 N acts on an area of 4 m. What is the pressure?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: A. 150 Pa
- Step 1: Pressure = force area.
- Step 2: Pa.
Answer
150 Pa.
Why not the others: 2400 Pa: force and area are multiplied. 0.007 Pa: area is divided by force. 596 Pa: the area is subtracted.
