The vehicle weighing 4000 kg has a support area of 80 cm2. What is the pressure of the car on the road?

To calculate the amount of pressure created by the presented car on the road, we apply the formula: P = Fт / S = ma * g / S.

Constants and variables: ma – vehicle weight (ma = 4000 kg = 4 * 10 ^ 3 kg); g – acceleration due to gravity (g ≈ 10 m / s2); S is the support area of the presented car (S = 80 cm2 = 80 * 10 ^ -4 m2).

Calculation: P = ma * g / S = 4 * 10 ^ 3 * 10 / (80 * 10 ^ -4) = 5 * 10 ^ 6 Pa.

Answer: The presented car created a pressure of 5 MPa on the road.
