A hutch weighs 150 lbs and it’s base has a length and width of 15 in and 34 in, respectively. What is the pressure exerted by the hutch on the floor?

Respuesta :

Answer:0.29

Explanation:

To determine the pressure of the hutch on the floor, we must first calculate the area of the base of the hutch.

A=lw=(15in.)(34in.)=510in.2

We can now use the formula to calculate pressure.

P=FAP=150lbs510in.2P≈0.294lbin.2

Rounding to two significant figures, the pressure exerted by the hutch on the floor is 0.29lbin.2.
