Answer: r^-1

Explanation:

V = (k × Q) / r, where V is electric potential, k is constant and r is distance from charge.

Since Q will not change, it can be considered a constant too.

So, we can write V ∝ 1/r

which is same as V ∝ r^-1

Find the pressure exerted by a force 8000 newton's on an area of 25m^2. Give your answer in newton's/n^2

Vanyuwa [196]

The pressure exerted by this force is equal to 320 $N/m^2$ .

<u>Given the following data:</u>

Force = 8000 Newton.

Area = 25 $m^2$ .

To calculate the pressure exerted by this force:

<h3>How to calculate pressure.</h3>

Mathematically, pressure is given by this formula:

$P=\frac{F}{A}$

<u>Where:</u>

P is the pressure.

F is the force.

A is the area.

Substituting the given parameters into the formula, we have:

$P = \frac{8000}{25}$

P = 320 $N/m^2$ .
