Question

An aeroplane weighing 30,000 Newton stands on one foot of area 500 m2

. How

much pressure is exerted on the ground? for class 8​

Answer 1

Answer:

Force = F = 50000 N

Area of 1 foot = 1000 cm² = 0.1 m²

Force = Thrust = 50000 N

Pressure = Thrust / Area

= 50000 / 0.1

=500000 Pa

Hence,

Pressure exerted on the ground

= 500000 Pa
