The four tires of an automobile are inflated to a gauge pressure of 2.02×10^5 Pa. Each tire has an area of 217 cm^2 in contact with the ground. Determine the weight of the automobile.

Respuesta :

The weight of the automobile is 17,533.6 N.

Weight of the automobile

The weight of the automobile is calculated as follows;

P = F / A

F = (W/4)

P = (W/4) / A

P = W/4A

W = 4AP

where;

  • P is pressure
  • A is area

W = (4)(217 x 10⁻⁴ m²)(2.02 x 10⁵ Pa)

W = 17,533.6 N

Thus, the weight of the automobile is 17,533.6 N.
