What force acting on an area of $3\ m^2$ will produce a pressure of $150\ Pa$?

 Given: 


Area $A=3\ m^2$

Pressure $P=150\ Pa$

Let $F$ be the acting force.

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

Or $150=\frac{F}{3}$

Or $F=150\times3$

Or $F=450\ N$

Therefore, $450\ N$ is the acting force on the given area.
