What force acting on an area of $15\ m^2$ will produce a pressure of $75\ Pa$?


Given: 

Area $A=15\ m^2$

Pressure $P=75\ Pa$

Let $F$ be the acting force.

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

Or $75=\frac{F}{15}$

Or $F=75\times15$

Or $F=1125\ N$

Therefore, $1125\ N$ is the acting force on the given area.
