Recall that
Pressure = Force ÷ Area

In this context we have,
Pressure = 24,000 ÷ (16 × 12)
= 24,000 ÷ 192
= 125 Pa

Answer:

125 N/m^2

Step-by-step explanation:

To calculate the the pressure(P) we need area(A) and force(F) because pressure is a function of force and area:

$P=F/A$ $(N/m^2)$

We can calculate the Area as:

$A=16*12=192$ m^2

Therefore we can calculate pressure per square meter:

$P=24000*(192)=4608000$ N/m^2

Hello! To find the answer to this, we must add all of the first 5 numbers. When you do that, the sum should be 81. You must do 16 * 6 to find the number of points combined he needs to add up to the average. 16 * 6 = 96. 96 - 81 = 15. On the 6th test, you must score 15 points to have an average of 16 points. The answer is 15.
