Question

Two women are of same weight. One wears shoes with flat soles and the other with pointed soles . Who would feel much comfortable while walking on sandy beach? Explain the answer with reason

Answer 1

Hi there!!

The woman wearing shoes with flat soles will feel much comfortable while walking on sandy beach as the flat shoes have more surface area than pointed soles. So the pressure on the sand is less as compared to pointed soles.
Pointed soles have less surface area and hence the pressure is more on the sand. Therefore, flat shoes are more comfortable.

Hope it helps.....
