प्रश्न

A block of iron of mass 7.5 kg and of dimensions 12 cm × 8 cm × 10 cm is kept on a table top on its base of side 12 cm × 8 cm.

Calculate:

  1. Thrust and
  2. Pressure exerted on the table top

Take 1 kgf = 10 N.

उत्तर

1 kgf = 10 N

∴ g = 10 ms-2 

1) Thrust is 

F = mg

= 7.5 kg × 10

= 75 N

2) Pressure is force per area.

∴ P = `"F"/"A"_"base"`

= `75/(12 xx 10^-2 xx 8 xx 10^-2)`

∴ P = 7812.5 Pa
