Understanding Pressure

Pressure is defined as force per unit area. The formula is:

Pressure (P) = Force (F) / Area (A)

Calculations

1. Convert area to square meters:

10 cm² = 10 * (1/100 m)² = 0.001 m²

2. Apply the pressure formula:

P = 150 N / 0.001 m² = 150,000 N/m²

Answer

The pressure of the fluid is 150,000 Pascals (Pa) or 150 kPa (kilopascals).
