a box has mass 60 kg and it is lying on the earth surface occupying an area of 6000 CM square then the pressure exerted by it on the ground is equal to

Answer: 981 Pa

Explanation:

1) dа ta:

m = 60 kg

S = 6000 cm²

P = ?

2) Formulas

i) F = peso = mg

ii) P = F / S

3) Solution

i) F = 60kg * 9.81 m/s² = 588.6 N

ii) P = F / S

First, convert 6000 cm² to m²: 6000 cm² * 1m² / (100cm) ² = 0.6 m²

Now, plug in the values and do the operations: P = 588.6N / 0.6m² = 981 Pa
