Question

Calculate the area of foot of camel of weight 200kg if it exerts pressure of 2000kg/m square

Answer 1

Explanation:

• Mass M = 200 kg
• Force F = mg

$f \: = m \: g$

$f \: = 200 \times 10$

$f \: = 2000 \: \: newton$

$pressure \: = \frac{force}{area}$

$area \: = \frac{force}{pressure}$

$area \: = \frac{2000}{2000}$

$area \: = 1 \: {m}^{2}$
