If the point of the nail can be approximated as a circle with radius 2.00 10 m, what is the pressure in megapascals
(MPa) exerted on the wall if a hammer strikes the nail with a
force of 104 N? Use 3.14 for Pi

P = 795.77 Mpa

Explanation:

Given that,

Force exerted by the hammer, F = 10⁴ N

The nail can be considered as a circle with radius of

We need to find the pressure exerted on the wall. Pressure is equal to force acting per unit area. So

We know that, 1 MPa = 1000000 Pa

So, P = 795.77 Mpa

So, the pressure exerted on the wall is 795.77 Mpa.

water at room temperature is flowing through a pipe with pressure taps located 10 ft apart along one section of the pipe, which are connected to a mercury (s=13.6) manometer.
