Question 1 Report
The table shows the force and area for four different situations. One pressure value is missing.
| Situation | Force / N | Area / m² | Pressure / Pa |
|---|---|---|---|
| J | 120 | 0.030 | 4000 |
| K | 480 | 0.080 | ? |
| L | 250 | 0.050 | 5000 |
| M | 360 | 0.12 | 3000 |
What is the missing pressure for situation K?
Using \( p = F / A \):
\[ p = \frac{480}{0.080} = 6000 \text{ Pa} \]The missing pressure for situation K is 6000 Pa. This can be verified by checking the other rows: J gives \( 120/0.030 = 4000 \) Pa, L gives \( 250/0.050 = 5000 \) Pa, and M gives \( 360/0.12 = 3000 \) Pa, all consistent with the table.
