What is the pressure exerted by a piston if a force of 12N is applied over an area of 1.2m squared?

Pressure is force / area. Just divide the force by the area. The answer is in pascal.


What force is exerted on an object in with an area 2.5 M squared if the pressure is 99500 PA?

99500 x 2.5 = 248,750 Newtons


What is the SI unit for pressure which is equal to one Newton exerted over 1 meter squared?

One Newton per square metre is one Pascal.


How much pressure do you experience when you balance a 5 kg ball on the tip of your finger say an area of 1cm cubed?

First of all, "cm cubed" is a volume, not an area. "cm squared" is an area.On earth, the downward force (weight) exerted by a 5-kg mass is 49 newtons (11.02 pounds).pressure = (force) / (area) = 49 newtons per cm2 = 490 kilopascal.Also 71.1 PSI. (rounded)

What is the mass of an object that is accelerating at 15ms when a force of 3000N is exerted?

45000 m/ s squared


What is the pressure exerted by the water bed with dimension of 2 m 2 m which is 30 cm thick?

Unfortunately, there is a missing variable from your question. In order to calculate pressure, we need to know the force being exerted upon an object. The formula for calculating Pressure is Force/Area.The total surface area of the bed would be roughly 10.2 meters squared. This gives us the "Area" part. But we still need to know force.


What is (x-2) squared -250?

Pressure is defined as the following Pressure = force / area. So what this means is pressure is how much force is exerted over a area of given size. For examle a concrete slab is on the floor this slab has a width of 2m and a length of 2 m its area is 2 x 2 which gives 2m Squared. Its force it exerts is 1000 newtons ok what the hell does this mean? if you place this in the formula you will get pressure = 1000/4 Pressure = 250 newtons per square metre. I hope this answers you question on what pressure is.


What is the SI unit which is equal to 1 N exerted over 1 m squared?

A force of 40 north is exerted on a 10-kg box. what is the box's acceleration?

4 meters per second squared


What is the pressure exerted by a book that has an area of 2m and a weight of 10 N?

Pressure equals Force/Area 1 Pascal = 1 N/m^2 Unit for area is 'squared meters' so I will assume that you meant 2m2 instead of just 2m. So plugging it into the formula we get: 10N/2m2 = 5 Pa


Calculate the force output by the larger piston of a hydraulic lift when a force of 700 n is exerted on the smaller piston the areas of the two pistons are 20 cm squared and 950 cm squared?
