What is the pressure if 10 N of force acts at 30 degrees from the surface of area 5 m^2?(a) 1 Pa(b) 2 Pa(c) 5 Pa(d) 10 PaThe question was posed to me in an online quiz.This key question is from Measurement of Pressure topic in chapter Temperature and Pressure of Basic Chemical Engineering

Answer»

The correct option is (a) 1 Pa

The EXPLANATION is: Normal component of the FORCE = 10sin30^o = 10*0.5 = 5 N, => Pressure = 5/5 = 1 Pa.
