A force of 10N is applied on a table top length 3 feet and width 2 feet. If the pressure is defined by the force applied per unit area, what is the unit of pressure

A. N x Feet

B. N x Feet ^2

C. N/Feet

D. N/Feet^2

"Newtons per square foot"

Step-by-step explanation:

The actual unit pressure here is (10 N) / 6 ft^2), where 6 ft^2 is the area of the table top. This reduces to:

(5/3) (N/ft^2). Read this unit of measurement as "Newtons per square foot.")
