Explanation:
Given that,
Side of a square tile, a = 50 cm = 0.5 m
Pressure withstand by it, P = 200 Pa
We know that,
Pressure = force/area
[tex]F=P\times A\\\\=200\times (0.5)^2\\\\=50\ N[/tex]
It is the force that tile withstand is 50 N. The force applied upon the time is 45 N. As 45 N can be applied on the tile because 45 N < 50 N.
