Question

An elephant weighing 50,000 Newton stands on one foot of area 1000cm2. What is the pressure exerted on the ground?

Answer 1

Hii

Hope it helps brother !

Force = F = 50000N

Area of one foot =1000cm2 = 0.1m2

Force = Thrust = 50000N

Pressure = Thrust / Area

               = 50000 / 0.1

               = 500000 Pa

Thus pressure exerted pn ground is 500000Pascal

Answer 2

F = 50000 N

Area = 1000 cm^2

Covert it in m^2

${\implies\dfrac{1000}{100\times 100}m^2}$    

= 0.1 m^2

Using Formula

${\implies Pressure=\dfrac{Force}{Area}}$  

${\implies\dfrac{50000N}{0.1 m^2}$    

= 500000
