Find the area of a body which experiences a pressure of 50,000 Pa by a thrust of 100 N.

Given:
Pressure = 50,000 Pa
Thrust = 100 N
Area = ?

$\text{Pressure}= \dfrac{\text{Thrust}}{\text{Area}} \\[1em] \text{Area}= \dfrac{\text{Thrust}}{\text{Pressure}} \\[1em] = \dfrac{\text{100}}{\text{50000}} \\[1em] = 0.002 \text{ m}^{2}$

So Area of body = 0.002 m² or 2 x 10^-3 m².
