Calculate the area of the floor:

Area = 1.6 x 2.3 = 3.68 square meters

Using the given formula: Pressure = force/area

200 = force / 3.68

Solve for force by multiplying both sides by 3.68

Force = 200 x 3.68

Force = 736 N/m^2

Correct to the nearest 5N/m^2 = 735 N/m^2

First of all we need to calculate the area of the floor and then we will find the pressure using the formula for pressure...

Area of floor

  • Length = 1.6 meter
  • Breadth = 2.3 meter

[tex] \sf \: area = length \times breadth[/tex]

[tex] \sf \: area = 1.6 \times 2.3[/tex]

[tex] \sf \: area = 3.68 \: {m}^{2} [/tex]

Finding force ↯

  • Pressure = 200 N/m²
  • Area = 3.68 m²

[tex] \tt \: pressure = \frac{force}{area} [/tex]

[tex] \tt \: 200 = \frac{force}{3.68} [/tex]

[tex] \tt \: force = 200 \times 3.68[/tex]

[tex] \tt \: force = 736 \: newton[/tex]

Thus, The maximum force is 736 Newton...~
