For the answer to the question above, we have to use this formula
Pressure = P = force / area 
Then, just substitute the values of the formula
force = mg = 2(10) = 20 N 

area = A = 1 cm² = [1 x 10 ̄ ²]² m² 


=> P = 20 N / [1 x 10 ̄ ²]² = 200 x 10³ Pa 

= 200 kPa 
I hope my answer helped you. Have a nice day!

lianna [129]
For the answer to the question above, we'll have to use these formulas.

A) to find time to travel the 300m,
just find horizontal component of the velocity and divide.
ie x=89 x t x cos 40, t=x/89 x cos 40 

<span>B) y=vtsin 40 - gt^2/2, just sub in
