Answer:
P = 9800 Pa
Explanation:
Given that,
The mass of a box, m = 30 kg
Length of the box, l = 0.2 m
The width of a box, b = 0.15 m
We need to find the pressure it exerted on the floor. Pressure is equal to force acting per unit area. So,
[tex]P=\dfrac{F}{A}\\\\=\dfrac{mg}{lb}\\\\=\dfrac{30\times 9.8}{0.2\times 0.15}\\\\P=9800\ Pa[/tex]
So, 9800 Pa of pressure is exerted on the floor.
