Question

A person weighs 600N .He is wearing shoes with total area of 0.02m^2.what pressure do they exert on afloor?

Answer 1

pressure is equal to force /area

so pressure is 600/0.002
=30000pascal

hope it will help you for your question

ok

Answer 2

Answer:

The pressure exerted by the person on the floor is equal to  3×10⁴Nm⁻².

Explanation:

We have given the force applied by person, F =600N

The area over which the force applied, A = 0.02m²

Pressure is measured in the terms of the force exerted on a surface. If the force is more, then pressure is more. The pressure being exerted is also related to the area of contact between them.  Both pressure and area are inversely proportional to each other.

Pressure = Force/Area

Pressure, $P=\frac{F}{A}$

$P=\frac{600N}{0.02m^2}$

$P= 3*10^4\;Nm^{-2}$

Therefore, the pressure exerted on the floor is equal to 3×10⁴Nm⁻².
