A stack of bricks weighs 170 KN (Kilo-newtons). The stack exerts 180 KPa (Kilo-pascals) of pressure on the ground. What is the a
rea upon which this pressure is exerted (in square ft)?
1 answer:
Answer:
10.12square feet
Explanation:
Pressure exerted on the object is defined as the ratio of the force exerted on it to its unit area. Mathematically, Pressure = Force/Area
Given the force = 170kN
Pressure = 180KPa
Area = Force /Pressure
Area = 170kN/180KPa
Area = 0.94N/Pa
Note that 1Newton/Pascal = 10.764square feet
Therefore 0.94N/Pa = x
x = 0.94× 10.764
x = 10.12square feet
Therefore the area upon which this pressure is exerted is 10.12sqft.

No I do not agree. It is because work is done when force acting o a body displace or covers certain displacement in the direction of force applied .
Answer:
C. N/m (newtons/meter)
Explanation:
Since the equation for potential energy for a spring is PE = 1/2kx², after you know <em>k </em>and <em>x</em>, you will get an answer in Joules.
