What force acting on an area of $20\ m^2$ will produce a pressure of $500\ Pa$?


 Given: 


Area $A=20\ m^2$

Pressure $P=500\ Pa$

Let $F$ be the acting force.

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

Or $500=\frac{F}{20}$

Or $F=500\times20$

Or $F=10000\ N$

Therefore, $10000\ N$ is the acting force on the given area.
