What pressure does the nail tip create on the board if the area of the nail tip is 0.6 mm2

What pressure does the nail tip create on the board if the area of the nail tip is 0.6 mm2, and the force with which it acts on the board is 30 N?

The pressure of the nail tip on impact is the ratio of the force with which the nail tip acts on the board to the value of the area of the nail tip.
P = F / S, where P is the pressure of the nail tip on the board (Pa); F is the pressure force of the nail tip (F = 30 N), S is the area of the nail tip (S = 0.6 mm ^ 2 = 0.6 * 10 ^ -6 m ^ 2).
Let’s calculate the pressure of the nail on the board:
P = F / S = 30 / (0.6 * 10 ^ -6) = 50,000,000 Pa = 50 * 10 ^ 6 Pa = 50 MPa.
Answer: The tip of the nail produces a pressure of 50 MPa.
