Find the magnitude of pressure in pascal of 150n that acts normally on area. of 0.25m2

Answer with Explanation:

When solving a problem in math, chemistry or physics, it is necessary to understand all the words and their definitions.  If not, start with finding out their meanings, one by one.

Here the key word to know is pascal, (P), which is a unit of measure for pressure, defined as

pressure = Force / applied area

1 pascal = 1 newton / square metre or

1 P = 1 N/sq.m.

Here, we have been given:

Force = 150 N

Area = 0.25 m^2.

Thus the pressure

= Force / Area

= 150 N / 0.25 m^2

= 150/0.25  N/m^2

= 600 pascals.

[ note that the abbreviations are written in capitals, while the full words, units of measurement,  are written without capitalization, since they are no longer proper names]
