Worksheet on calculating Pressure

1. A book applies a force of 12 N on a table. If the book's bottom surface has an


area of 0.6 m², calculate the pressure exerted by the book on the table.

2. A box with a weight of 50 N is placed on a surface. The area of the box in contact
with the surface is 0.25 m². What is the pressure exerted on the surface?

3. A chair has four legs, and the total weight of the chair is 100 N. If each leg covers
an area of 0.02 m², calculate the pressure exerted by one leg on the ground.

4. If a pressure of 400 Pa is exerted on a surface with an area of 2 m², what is the


force acting on the surface?

5. A person weighing 600 N stands on one foot. If the area of the foot in contact with
the ground is 0.08 m², calculate the pressure exerted on the ground.

6. A force of 60 N creates a pressure of 300 Pa on a surface. What is the area of the


surface in contact with the force?

7. A pressure of 200 Pa is exerted on a wall. If the area of the wall is 4 m², what is
the force applied on the wall?

8. A box with a weight of 75 N is placed on a table. The box has an area of 0.5 m² in
contact with the table. Calculate the pressure exerted by the box on the table.

9. The tip of a pencil applies a force of 5 N on a paper. If the area of the tip is 0.0002
m², what is the pressure exerted on the paper?

10. A sled weighing 200 N is placed on snow. The sled's base has an area of 1.5 m².
Calculate the pressure the sled exerts on the snow.
