Question

jenna is an aerospace engineer. she is trying to determine the force of the air exerted on the aircraft door that will keep it closed in flight. solve for f using the formula $p = \frac{f}{a}$, where $p$ = pressure, $f$ = force, and $a$ = area. $f = \frac{p}{a}$ $f = \frac{a}{p}$ $f = p + a$ $f = pa$

Explanation:

Step1: Multiply both sides by \(A\)

Given \(P = \frac{F}{A}\), multiply both sides by \(A\): \(P\times A=\frac{F}{A}\times A\)

Step2: Simplify the equation

Since \(\frac{F}{A}\times A = F\) and \(P\times A=PA\), we get \(F = PA\)

Answer:

\(F = PA\)
