Question

Why don't snow boots sink?

Answer 1

Answer:

The area of snow shoes (which comes in contact with the snow) is much bigger than the area of sole of ordinary shoes worn by us in everyday life. So, the snow shoes exert less pressure (= force /area) on the soft snow and stop the wearer from sinking into it.

Best of luck your future

Answer 2

Explanation:

Snow shoes have a much larger area than feet to spread the force over a larger area and reduce the pressure on the snow - this stops people sinking into the snow. ... This reduces the pressure they exert and are less likely to sink in to wet ground.
