Question

0.836 m

0.525m- >
If the pressure exerted by the wind on the kite shown above is
113 Pa, what is the force exerted on the kite in N?
LN

Answer 1

The force exerted on the Kite is 49.6 N.

Step-by-step explanation:

Force is nothing but the product of pressure exerted by the wind on the kite and the area of the kite.

F = P × A

Where,

F is the Force in Newton = ?

P is the Pressure = 113 Pa = 113 N/m²

A is the Area of the Kite

A = 0.836 m × 0.525 m = 0.4389 m²

Now, we can find the force as,

F = 113 N/m² × 0.4389 m²

= 49.6 N [ ∵ In the units, m² gets cancelled]

So the force exerted on the Kite is 49.6 N.
