Formula's
weight
Pressure
W=m⋅g
P=AF
Symbols:
- W: weight — The force of gravity exerted on an object – Expressed in Newtons (N)
- m: The mass of something — Expressed in kilograms (kg)
- g: Gravitational field strength — The strength of a planets gravity – Expressed in (N/kg)
- P: Pressure — The amount of force applied per surface area — Expressed in N/m2 or N/cm2
- F: Force — The strength of a push or pull — Expressed in Newtons (N)
- A: The size of a surface area — Expressed in m2 or cm2

Converting units
Exercise 1
a) 1 m2 = 10000 cm2b) 5 m2 = 50000 cm2
c) 0,5 m2 = 5000 cm2
d) 0,1 m2 = 1000 cm2
e) 1 cm2 = 0,0001 m2
f) 5 cm2 = 0,0005 m2
g) 0,5 cm2 = 0,00005 m2
h) 0,1 cm2 = 0,00001 m2
Exercise 2
a) 1 N/m2 = 0,0001 N/cm2
b) 5 N/m2 = 0,0005 N/cm2
c) 0,5 N/m2 = 0,00005 N/cm2
d) 0,1 N/m2 = 0,00001 N/cm2
e) 1 N/cm2 = 10000 N/m2
f) 5 N/cm2 = 50000 m2
g) 0,5 N/cm2 = 5000 N/m2
h) 0,1 N/cm2 = 1000 N/m2

Calculating weight
A) A man with a mass of 80 kilogram (kg) is carrying a box with a mass of 22,5 kilogram (kg). The gravitational field strength on earth is 9.8 Newton/kilogram (N/kg). Calculate the weight of this man and the box together.
B) On the moon this man's weight would be 165 Newton. calculate the gravitational field strength of the moon
W=m⋅g

Calculating pressure
A woman weighing 76 kg is wearing high heels to the zoo. She goes to see an elephant with a mass of 5221 kg. One of her heels has a total area of 8.4 cm2. One of the elephants feet has an area of 301 cm2.
a) Without making calculations, make an estimation of wether the elephant or the women applies a greater pressure to the ground. Write down your reasoning.
b) Calculate the pressure the women applies to the ground in N/m2.
c) Calculate the pressure the elephant applies to the ground N/m2.
