A drawing pin with a tip area of 0.1 mm"...

A drawing pin with a tip area of 0.1 mm`""^(2)` is pushed against a board with a force of 30 N. Calculate the pressure exerted at the tip.

Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To calculate the pressure exerted at the tip of the drawing pin, we can use the formula for pressure, which is given by: \[ \text{Pressure} (P) = \frac{\text{Force} (F)}{\text{Area} (A)} \] ### Step 1: Identify the given values - Force \( F = 30 \, \text{N} \) ...
