f a force of 2020 newtons​ [N] is applied to a surface and the pressure is measured as 4 comma 5004,500 pascals​ [Pa], what is the area of the surface in units of square milimeters ​[mm2​]?

Respuesta :

Answer:

4444 mm²

Explanation:

Pressure, P, is given by

[tex]P = \dfrac{F}{A}[/tex]

where F is the force and A is the area.

[tex]A = \dfrac{F}{P}[/tex]

Using the values in the question,

[tex]A = \dfrac{20}{4500} = 0.00444\ldots\,\text{ m}^2[/tex]

To convert to mm², note that 1 m = 1000 mm.

So 1 m² = 1000 × 1000 mm²

[tex]\therefore A = 0.004444\times 1000000 \text{ m^2}[/tex]

[tex]A = 4444 \text{ m^2}[/tex]
