Question

the elephant weighs 20,000 N stands on one foot of area 1000 cm2.how much pressure would it exert on the ground​

Answer 1

P= f/ area

p= 20000n/1000cm square

20 pa = p

Answer 2

Given :-

Force (F) = 20000 N

. Area (A) = 1000 cm?

To find :-

Pressure

Solution :-

• 1m? = 10000cm2

Area = 0.1 m2

As we know that

Pressure = Force/Area

- Pressure = 20,000/01

» Pressure = 200000 N/m2

Hence,

Pressure would it exert on the ground is 200000 N/m²
