Question 39

A box has a mass of 800 g. One of its surfaces measures $m0.20\text{ m} \times 0.25\text{ m}$ . This surface is in contact with a shelf.

The gravitational field strength $g\,$ is 10 N/kg.

What is the pressure exerted on the shelf due to the box?

$N/m216\text{ N/m}^2$

$N/m240\text{ N/m}^2$

$N/m2160\text{ N/m}^2$

$N/m2800\text{ N/m}^2$
