Question

a man weighing 1500N exert a pressure of 105N/m on the ground.calculate his area of contact with the ground.
​

Answer 1

We have,

• Force(F) = 1500N
• Pressure(P) = 105N/m
• Area(A) = ?

We know that,

• P = F/A
• A = F/P
• A = 1500/105
• A = 300/21
• A = 100/7
• A = 14.28m² (Required Answer)
