A box has the weight of 120N and the bottom of the box is 12 cm² what is the pressure the box exerts on the floor

Given parameters

Weight of the box = 120N

Area of the box = 12cm^2

Unknown

Pressure of the box on the floor = ?

Solution

Pressure is the fore exerted by a body per uint area

Pressure = force/area

We need to convert the area into m^2 from cm^2

10000cm^2 = 1m^2

12cm^2 = 12/1000 = 0.0012m^2

Pressure = 120/0.0012 = 100000N/m^2

your answer would be “dry”

you didnt put any of the following
