PolarNik [594]

Answer:

The pressure this object exerts on the surface is 5lb/in² or 5psi.

Explanation:

Pressure is force per unit area.

Mathematically, pressure is given by the formula;

Pressure = \frac{Force}{Area}

P = \frac{F}{A}

Given the following data;

Force = 10lb

Area = 2in²

Substituting into the equation, we have;

Pressure = \frac{10}{2}

Pressure = 5lb/in² or 5psi

<em>Hence, the pressure this object exerts on the surface is 5lb/in² or 5psi. </em>
