The sockets are pressed from a special mass (barkalite), acting on it with a force of 37.5 Kn.

The sockets are pressed from a special mass (barkalite), acting on it with a force of 37.5 Kn. The outlet area is 0.0075m2. What pressure is the outlet under?

Data: F (force acting on the socket) = 37.5 kN (37.5 * 10 ^ 3 N); S (socket area taken) = 0.0075 m2.

The required pressure, under which the outlet is located, is calculated by the formula: P = F / S.

Calculation: P = 37.5 * 10 ^ 3 / 0.0075 = 5 * 10 ^ 6 Pa = 5 MPa.

Answer: When pressed, the rosette is under a pressure of 5 MPa.
