Given: F = 300 N; `"A" = 30 " cm"^2 = 30/(100xx100)"m" ^2 = 30xx10^-4 "m"^2`
To Find: Pressure
`therefore "P" = "F"/"A"`
`= 300/(30/(100xx100)`
` = (300xx100xx100)/30`
= 100000
= 105 Pa
Calculate the pressure in pascal exerted by a force of 300 N acting normally on an area of 30 cm2.

a single nail pricking the body is painful when compared to lying on a bed of nails.
A vessel filled with water is kept on a weighing pan and the scale adjusted to zero. A block of mass M and density ρ is suspended by a massless spring of spring constant k. This block is submerged inside into the water in the vessel. What is the reading of the scale?
