Question

12. A cuboid measures 1m by 2m by 4m has a mass of 2kg. Dete
(a) The minimum pressure exerted​

Answer 1

Minimum pressure exerted (when area is maximum) = 2× 10/ 0.2×0.05

= 20/0.010 = 2000 N/m²

Maximum pressure(when area is least) = 2×10/ 0.03×0.05 = 20/ 0.0015 = 200000/15 = 13333.33 N/m²
