a force of 3,000 pounds acting on an area of four square inches will produce a pressure of ? psi

Explanation:

Step1: Recall Pressure Formula

Pressure \( P \) is force \( F \) divided by area \( A \), so \( P = \frac{F}{A} \).

Step2: Substitute Values

Given \( F = 3000 \) pounds, \( A = 4 \) square inches. Substitute into formula: \( P = \frac{3000}{4} \).

Step3: Calculate Result

\( \frac{3000}{4} = 750 \).

Answer:

750
