5 pa os pressure is required to be exert...

5 pa os pressure is required to be exerted on an are of ` 250 m^2` .A box is placed on that area and the surface of cantact is exactly `250 m^2` .What should be the mass of the box so that exactly 5 pa of pressure can be exerted ?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Pressure `=("Force")/("Area")`
`5=("Force")/(250)("1 Pa = N/m"^(2))`
`:.` Required force = 1250 N
Let m be the mass of the object.
`:.m xx g =1250`
`:.m xx 10=1250`
`:." m"=(1250)/(10)"kg"=125" kg "(becauseg~~10" m s"^(-2))`
