Answer:
The pressure exerted on the table due to the book is 200 N/m².
Explanation:
The pressure exerted on the table due to the book is 200 N/m².
The given parameters;
mass of the book, m = 400 g = 0.4 kg
dimension of the table, = 0.10m x 0.20 m.
gravitational field strength g = 10 N/kg.
The area of the table is calculated as follows;
A = 0.1 x 0.2 = 0.02 m²
The pressure exerted on the table due to the book is calculated as follows; where;
F is the force of the book due to its weight
Thus, the pressure exerted on the table due to the book is 200 N/m².
