What is The force pushing on a surface divided by the area of that suface?
Pressure. (Note that the force must be perpendicular to the surface.) Pressure can my measured in Pascals (N/m2), psi (pounds/in2), atmospheres, or a few other units.
What is force in newtons divided by the area?
Force divided by area is pressure. If the force is in newtons and the area is in metres squared, the pressure will be in pascals (Pa).
How do you calculate surface area to volume?
surface area divided by volume
What is the surface area divided by the area?
1
What is the equation for pressure when the force is perpendicular to the surface area?
Pressure of solid on a solidWhen you apply a force to a solid object, the pressure is defined as the force applied divided by the area of application. The equation for pressure is: P = F/AwhereP is the pressureF is the applied forceA is the surface area where the force is appliedF/A is F divided by AFor example, if you push on an object with your hand with a force of 20 pounds, and the area of your hand is 10 square inches, then the pressure you are exerting is 20 / 10 = 2 pounds per square inch.
The measure of the force which air molecules push on a surface?
You're looking for "air pressure", but you haven't described it correctly.The pressure is not the force pushing on the surface.It's the (force pushing on the surface) divided by the (area of the surface).
What force is pushing on a surface or area?
Pressure.
What quantity is divide by the surface area?
The quantity that is divided by the surface area is force. Force divided by surface area is equal to pressure.
What is the force of pushing on a surface divided by the area of that surface?
This is usually expressed as weight or force per square area. In imperial measure (USA) pounds per square inch In Metric KG/meter2
What is the force on a surface divided by the area of that surface?
The force that is exerted on a surface divided by the area of the area is pressure. The standard unit of pressure is the Pascal.
The force pushing on a surface or area?
Pressure
What is divided by surface area to calculate pressure?
That is the force F. p = F / Awhere:p is the pressure,F is the normal force,A is the area (surface).
What is The force pushing on a surface divided by the area of that suface?
Pressure. (Note that the force must be perpendicular to the surface.) Pressure can my measured in Pascals (N/m2), psi (pounds/in2), atmospheres, or a few other units.
The force exerted on a surface divided by the area over which the force is exerted?
Pressure is the force exerted on an object divided by the area where the pressure was applied.
What is the force action on a surface?
Force divided by surface area is called pressure, if that's what you mean.
What is the pressure when a solid pushes another solid?
The pushing force divided by the area of contact.
What is the force on a surface divided by the total area cover which the force is exerted?
That's the definition of the 'pressure' which the force exerts on the surface.
