Answer :
Given -
Force = 25 N
Area = (100×100) cm² = 10000 cm² = 1 m²
To Find -
Pressure ?
Solution -
Pressure is said to be Force per unit area.
Pressure = Force/Area.
Pressure = 25/1 = 25 N/m²
Hence, Pressure = 25 N/m².
Some Additional Information :
Verified answer
1m=10000cm =(100×100)cm. P=F/A. Therefore pressure =(25/1)Pa =25Pa
