We have,
- Mass of object = 100 kg
- Surface area of object = 1cm² = 1/10000 m²
We know that,
We already have area but we dont have force, so let's calculate it first;
- F = ma
- F = 100 × 9.8 { Acceleration due to gravity, you can also take 9.8 as 10(approx) }
- F = 980 N
Now, just put all of these values in the formula;
- P = F/A
- P = 980/1/10000
- P = 980 × 10000/1
- P = 9800000
- P = 98 × 10^5
Thus, the pressure applied by the object is 980 pa.
