Question

What pressure would be exerted by 9. 3 Newtons over a 48. 9 m2 area?

Answer 1

The pressure exerted would be approximately 0.19 N/m² or 0.19 Pa.

Pressure is defined as the applied force per unit area. When a force is exerted on a surface, pressure is the amount of force that is distributed per unit area of that surface.

The formula to calculate pressure is:

`\boxed{\large\displaystyle\text{$\begin{gathered}\sf \bf{P=(F)/(A) } \end{gathered}$} }`

Where:

• P is the pressure
• F is the force
• A is the area

In this case:

• P = ?
• F = 9.3 N
• A = 48.9 m²

Substituting the known values into the formula, we have:

`\boxed{\large\displaystyle\text{$\begin{gathered}\sf \bf{P=(9.3 \ N )/(48.9 \ m^2) } \end{gathered}$} }`

`\boxed{\boxed{\large\displaystyle\text{$\begin{gathered}\sf \bf{P\approx0.19 \ (N)/(m^2) } \end{gathered}$} }}`

`\boxed{\boxed{\large\displaystyle\text{$\begin{gathered}\sf \bf{P\approx0.19 \ Pascal } \end{gathered}$} }}`

The pressure exerted would be approximately 0.19 N/m² or 0.19 Pa.

Answer 2

The pressure
`P` can be calculated using the formula:

`\qquad\qquad\dashrightarrow\rm{P=(F)/(A)}`

where:

• 
  `F` is the force exerted.
• 
  `A` is the area over which the force is applied.

Substituting the given values, we get:

`\qquad\quad\dashrightarrow\rm{P=\frac{9.3\text{ N}}{48.9\text{ m}^2}}`

Simplifying this expression, we get:

`\qquad\quad\dashrightarrow\boxed{\rm{\:\:P=0.190\text{ N/m}^2\:\:}}`

`\therefore` The pressure exerted by 9.3 Newtons over a 48.9 m
`^2` area is 0.190 N/m
`\bold{^2}`.
