The pressure exerted by $\left.5 0 ~ kg ~ ( g = 1 0 m / s ^2\right)$ on an area of cross section of $2 m^2$ is :
A
50 Pa
B
200 Pa
✓
250 Pa
D
1000 Pa
Answer
Correct option: C.
250 Pa
(c) 250 Pa Explanation: $m =50 kg ; g =10 ms^{-2}$ Area of cross-section $=A=2 m^2$ $ \text { Pressure }=P=\frac{F}{A}=\frac{mg}{A}=\frac{50 \times 10}{2}=250 Pa $
