Megapascals

What is the area of cross-section of the piston if the force of 300 kN produces a pressure of 5 MPa?

Final Answer:

S =  600 cm2

Step-by-step explanation:

p=5 106=5000000 Pa F=300 1000=300000 N  p=F/S S1=F/p=300000/5000000=503=0.06 m2 S=S1 cm2=S1 10000  cm2=0.06 10000  cm2=600 cm2=600 cm2
