What else can I help you with?
You exert a force of 25N on the head of a thumbtack the head of the thumbtack has a radius of 5mm what is the pressure on your thumb?
The pressure on your thumb can be calculated by dividing the force (25N) by the area of the thumbtack head in contact with your thumb. The area can be found using the formula for the area of a circle, A = πr^2, where r is the radius (5mm). Therefore, the pressure on your thumb is 25N / (π * (5mm)^2) = 1N/mm^2, or 1 MPa.
What types of force that exert pressure?
athmospheric pressure
How do you work out the pressure that you exert?
You can calculate the pressure you exert by dividing the force you apply by the area over which you apply that force. The formula for pressure is: Pressure = Force / Area. The unit for pressure is typically Pascals (Pa) or Newtons per square meter (N/m^2).
Does light have force in it?
Light does not have mass, so it does not exert a force by itself. However, light can carry momentum and exert a force on objects it interacts with, such as when light is reflected or absorbed by a surface. This is known as radiation pressure.
Do you need a large force to obtain a large pressure?
No! Pressure is force per unit area: p=f/a. Thus it does not require a large force to produce a large pressure; reducing the area increases the pressure for the same applied force. The thumbtack, for example, can be considered to be a pressure amplifier since a small force applied to the head becomes a very large force at the pointed end of the thumbtack. Not if you have a narrow bore pipe.
What force does the gas exert on the piston?
The gas exerts a force on the piston known as gas pressure.
Do solids exert pressure?
Yes, solids can exert pressure when a force is applied to them. The pressure is distributed over the area in contact with the solid, and it can cause deformation or compression depending on the material's properties.
What information is needed to calculate the force that a hydraulic cylinder can exert?
To calculate the force that a hydraulic cylinder can exert, you would need to know the hydraulic pressure being applied to the cylinder and the effective area of the piston inside the cylinder. The formula to calculate the force is force = pressure x area.
Does vacuum have buoyancy force?
No, vacuum does not have a buoyancy force because buoyancy is a result of differences in pressure within a fluid. In a vacuum, there is no fluid to exert pressure so there is no buoyant force.
Where do the rocket exerts force in pressure?
Rockets exert force at the upper part of the combustion chamber. This pushes the rocket forward.
When you exert force on a fluid in a closed container does the pressure increase decrease or remain constant?
When force is exerted on a fluid in a closed container, the pressure will increase. This is because pressure is directly proportional to the force applied to a fluid.
Which liquids and gases exert a buoyant force on objects placed in them?
Liquids such as water and gases such as air exert a buoyant force on objects placed in them. This force is a result of the pressure difference between the top and bottom of the object, pushing it upward.
