If 30 N of force is exerted over an area of 20 m2, how much pressure is being applied?

pressure=force/area

34

To calculate pressure, you need to divide the force applied by the area over which it is applied. In this case, the force is given as 30 N and the area is given as 20 m².

To find the pressure, you can use the formula:

Pressure = Force / Area

Substituting the given values:

Pressure = 30 N / 20 m²

Dividing 30 N by 20 m²:

Pressure = 1.5 N/m²

Therefore, the pressure being applied is 1.5 N/m².
