Question

a football player is tackled by another player and lands with the combined weight of both players on his knees. if the combined weight of the player is 2400 N and players knees measures .1x.1 m. how much pressure is exerted on the turf when the player lands on his knees?

Answer 1

Pressure= Force/Area
and wkt, p = F/A => 2400/(0.1*0.1)
=> 2400/0.01
=> 240 000 N/m^2 (2.4*10^5 N/m^2).
