What force acting on an area of $1\ m^2$ will produce a pressure of $250\ Pa$?

Given: 

Area $A=1\ m^2$

Pressure $P=250\ Pa$

Let $F$ be the acting force.

We know, $Pressure\ P=\frac{Force(F)}{Area(A)}$

Or $250=\frac{F}{1}$

Or $F=250\times1$

Or $F=250\ N$

Therefore, $250\ N$ is the acting force on the given area.
