Question

An Elephant standing on two legs and exerting 50,000N Force .The area of contact with one leg is 25cm2 . Calculate the pressure exerted​

Answer 1

Answer:

Explanation:

pressure(p) = perpendicular force(F)/area(A)

p = F/A

F = 50000N

area of contact of one leg = 25 cm2

area of contact of 2 leg = 50 cm2 = 0.005 m^2

p = 50000/0.005

  = 1,00,00,000 pa
