Question

the elephant waste 20000 Newton stands on one foot of area 1000 CM square how much pressure would it exert on the ground

Answer 1

Answer:

P=f/a

p=2000newton/10m (1000cm=10m)

p=200 pascal

Answer 2

Answer:

p= 50000 N/m²

(or)

50000 pa

Explanation:

Force applied by elephant, F= 20000N

one foot area (1leg)=1000 cm²

(4 leg)= 4× 1000 cm²

=4000cm²

convert centimetre into metre

1 cm² = 1/1000 m²

4000 cm²=4000/10000m²

A=4/10 m²

pressure=force/area

20000/4/10

20000 × 10/4

p= 50000 N/m²

or

50000 pa
