Question

. An elephant stand by its 4(four) legs and cover area of 2.5 m2. The mass of an Elephant is 350 kg and it is stand only by its own 3 legs, what would be the pressure exerted by an elephant? Full

Answer 1

Answer:

Explanation:

Area = 2.5 m²

Mass = 350 kg

Here, we are taking the gravitational force as 9.8 m/s.

∴ Force = ma

= [350*9.8] N

= 3430 N

Pressure = Force/Area

= [3430/2.5] Pa

= 1372 Pa

Hope this helps.
