    What is the width of a rectangle given pressure, mass, and length of one side?

    Thank you very much. We weren't sure of the result.

    What is the width of a rectangle given pressure, mass, and length of one side?

    Thank you for responding. The question is from a test in an introductory physics course in 9th grade. What we wrote here is our guess at how to solve it. The whole question just read that "A body of rectangular shape applies to a surface a pressure of 8kPa. The mass of the body is 10 kg and its...

    What is the width of a rectangle given pressure, mass, and length of one side?

    Homework Statement Pressure is 8 kPa, mass is 10 kg, length of one side of rectangle is 1.2 m Find width of rectangle Homework Equations P=F/A N = kg * m * s^-2 The Attempt at a Solution 8kPa = (10kg * 10m/s) / (1.2 m * X m) /// X is the unknown width 8000Pa = 100N / 1.2X m^2...
