What force acting on an area of $4\ m^2$ will produce a pressure of $400\ Pa$?


 Given: 


Area $A=4\ m^2$

Pressure $P=400\ Pa$

Let $F$ be the acting force.

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

Or $400=\frac{F}{4}$

Or $F=400\times4$

Or $F=1600\ N$

Therefore, $1600\ N$ is the acting force on the given area.
