Karen wants to pump up her car tyre.
Her pump has a piston with an area of 7 cm^2
175 N
area = 7 cm^2
Karen pushes the handle down with a force of 175 N.
(a)
What pressure does she exert on the air in the pump?

250000Pa

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Force applied = 175N

Area = 7cm²

Unknown:

Pressure exerted by the air in the pump = ?

Solution:

Pressure is the force per unit area acting on a body;

        Pressure  =

Area  = 7cm²  ;

           10000cm²   = 1m²

        7cm² is 7 x 10⁻⁴m²

Pressure  = = 250000Pa
