27 The diagram shows a solid cylinder on a horizontal floor.
| \(\text{pressure} = \dfrac{\text{force}}{\text{area}}\) |
The cylinder has a
volume of 1200 cm\(^3\)
height of 40 cm.
The cylinder exerts a force of 90 newtons on the floor.
Work out the pressure on the floor due to the cylinder. (3)
| Answer | Mark | Mark scheme |
|---|---|---|
| 3 | P1 | for process to find area of base, eg \(1200 \div 40\ (= 30)\) |
| P1 | for process to find pressure, eg \(90 \div \text{``}30\text{''}\) | |
