8. When will be the effect of thrust larger, while standing or while
lying? Why is it so?
​

Answer 1

Answer:

When you lie down, the same force acts on an area of your whole body, which is larger than the area of your feet. Therefore the effect of thrust, that is, pressure depends on the area on which it acts. The effect of thrust on sand is larger while standing than lying. Thus, we can say thrust on an unit area is pressure.
