THANKS

Answer 2

Answer:

Explanation:

Pressure = Force/Area

If the area is more, the pressure is less.

So if buildings have wide foundations, they do not sink under the high pressure of buildings

▪Buildings have wide foundations for safety because if the area on which the thrust acts is more, then the pressure exerted by the building will be less. The foundation will be able to balance the weight of the building.

▪ Thrust is the force acting perpendicular on the surface.
