a book with an area of 0.0800 m/2 and a weight of 1.00 n is lying on the table . find the pressure on the surface of the table caused by the weight of the book.

Answer 1

The pressure on the surface of the table caused by the weight of the book is 12.5 Pa (Pascals). This can be calculated using the formula Pressure = Force/Area, where Force is equal to the weight of the book (1.00 n) and Area is equal to the area of the book (0.0800 m/2).
