Question

A force of $5 N$ is applied on a body over a surface area of 5 $m^{2}$ . Calculate the pressure applied on the surface.

Options:

A .

2 P a

B .

3 P a

C .

5 P a

D .

1 P a

Answer: Option D
:
D

Given:
Force on the body $F = 5 N$
Surface area of the body $A = 5 m^{2}$
Now, pressure applied on the body $P = \frac{F}{A}$
$P = \frac{5 N}{5 m^{2}} = 1 N m^{- 2} = 1 P a$
Pressure applied on the body $= 1 P a$
