A force of 84N is applied to an area of
15cm". Work out the pressure in N/cm².
cm3)

 5.6 N/cm^2

Work Shown:

Pressure = (Force)/(Area)

P = F/A

P = (84 N)/(15 cm^2)

P = (84/15) (N/cm^2)

P = 5.6 N/cm^2

For every square cm, 5.6 newtons of force is applied.

Extra info:

If you wanted to convert this to pascals, then you would need to convert 15 cm^2 to 0.0015 square meters. Then apply the formula above to get 56,000 pascals. 1 pascal is equivalent to 1 N/m^2.
