(P) = F = faces.
A 150 # 10-4
Thus, pressure, P = 1000 Pa Ans :
Given, Mass of the brick (m) = 2.5 kg
54. How much force should be applied on an area of 1 cm2 Dimensions of the brick = 20 cm × 10 cm × 5 cm
to get a pressure of 15 Pa? Weight of the brick (Thrust/Force)
Ans : F = mg = 2.5 × 9.8

Here, Area, A = 1 cm2 = 10–4 m2 = 24.5 N

(i) When the surface area 10 cm × 5 cm is in contact
Pressure (P) = 15 Pa = 15 N/m2 with the ground, then
As F=P×A Area = 10 × 5 = 50 cm2
2 –4 2
= (15 N/m ) × (10 m )
= 50 = 0.005 m2
= 1.5 × 10–3 N 10000

P = F = 24.5 = 4900 N/m2

55. A block weighing 1.0 kg is in the shape of a cube of A 0.005
length 10 cm. It is kept on a horizontal table. Find the (ii) When the surface area 20 cm × 10 cm is in contact
pressure on the portion of the table where the block with the ground, then
Area = 20 × 10 = 200 cm2

a = 20 m/s2

60. An object is thrown vertically upwards and reaches a

height of 78.4 m. Calculate the velocity at which the
object was thrown? (g = 9.8 m/s2)
Ans :

Given, h = 78.4 m
v=0
g = –9.8 m/s2
Now, v2 = u2 – 2gh
u2 – [2 × (– 9.8) × 78.4] = 0
u2 = 2 × (– 9.8) × 78.4
2 # (- 98) # 784
u2 =
10 # 10

u = 2 # 2 # 49 # 784
10 # 10

u = 2 # 7 # 28

u = 39.2 m/s2

61. What is the mass of an object whose weight is 49

Newton?
Ans :

Given, Weight of object W = 49N

g = 9.8 m/s2
Now, W = mg
m = W = 49 = 5 kg
g 9.8

62. The volume of 50 g of a substance is 20 cm3. If the

density of water is 1 g cm–3, will the substance float
or sink?
Ans :

Mass = 50 g
Volume = 20 cm3
Density = ?
50 g
Density = Mass =
Volume 20 cm3
= 2.5 g cm–3
As the density of substance is greater than water, so
it will sink.
