Explain how force and surface area affect the applied pressure.​

Physics

Answer:

force and surface area are two factors affecting pressure on solids

more the force you apply, more will be the pressure

pressure and force are directly proportional meaning if Force is greater, pressure will also be greater

more the surface area of the solid less will be the pressure

surface area and pressure are inversely proportional meaning if surface are is big, pressure will be less, surface area small, pressure will be greater

Answer and Explanation:

We have a basic equation: Pressure = Force/Area.

So for example:

Increase pressure - increase the force or reduce the area the force acts on.

Decrease pressure - decrease the force, or increase the area the force acts on

The force per unit area is pressure. The force on the object is spread over the surface area. The area where the force is applied is divided by the equation for pressure.

The height of the Empire State Building is 318.00 meters. If a stone is dropped from the top of the building, what is the stone'
Helen [10]
We can use 3rd equation of motion to find the velocity of the stone just before it strikes the ground.

Height = S = 318 meters
Acceleration = a= 9.8 m/s²
Initial velocity = u = 0
Final velocity = v = ?

According to the 3rd equation of motion:

2aS = v² - u²

2(9.8)(318)=v²

v²=6232.8

⇒

v = 78.95 m/s

So, the velocity rounded of to nearest integer will be 79 meters per second.

Thus, C option is the correct answer

Two students designed an experiment to study the effect of solar radiations on four cities of Earth. They used a globe to repres
Furkat [3]
Great experiment !  Everybody should try it if they can get the equipment. 
It demonstrates a lot of things that are very hard to explain in words. 

I hope the students remembered to tilt the axis of the globe.  If they didn't,
and instead kept it straight up and down, then each city had pretty much
the same amount of bulb-light all the way around, and there were no seasons.

If the axis of the globe was tilted, then City-D had the least variation in
seasons.  City-D is only 2° from the equator, so the sun is more direct
there all year around than it is at any of the others.
