Answer: 21965.517 Pa

Explanation:

Pressure P is the force F exerted by a gas, a liquid or a solid on a surface (or area) A, its unit is Pascal Pa which is equal to N/m^{2} and its formula is:  

P=\frac{F}{A} (1)

In this case we have the surface of a sole of a tennis shoe:

A=0.0290 m^{2} (2)

And the mass m of the person who wears it:

m=65 kg

On the other hand, we know the weight is the force  F the Earth exerts on people and objects due gravity g :

F=m.g=(65 kg)(9.8m/^{2})

F=637N (3)

Substituting (2) and (3) in (1):

P=\frac{637N}{0.0290 m^{2}} (4)

Finally:

P=21965.517 Pa This is the pressure the shoe exert on the ground

Two equal forces are applied to a door. The first force is applied at the midpoint of the door; the second force is applied at t
TEA [102]

Answer: The second force applied to the doorknob

Explanation:

The formulae for torque is simple the product of the applied force and the perpendicular distance.

The greater the perpendicular force, the greater the torque assuming a constant value of force.

Applying the force at the doorknob gives for a greater distance between the force and the turning point compared to applying the force at the midpoint of the door ( which is at a shorter distance)

Using a simple machine, a student is able to lift a 500N weight by applying only 100N.
pishuonlain [190]
Hey there!

a \ student  \ is \ able \ to \ lift \ a \ 500(n) \\ weight \ by \ applying \ only  \ 100(n) \\ \\ so, \ this \ info \ here, \ we \ simply \ divide \ by \\ how \ much \ this \ kid \ lifted, \ by \ the \ weight \ he/she \\ \ is \ applying. \\ \\   \left[\begin{array}{ccc}\boxed{\boxed{500(n)/100(n)}}\end{array}\right] \\ \\ and \ from \ this,\ your \ answer \ would \ \\ conclude \ to \ be \ (5) \\ \\ \boxed{5} \ would \ be \ your \ answer!

Hope this helps you!

A bulldozer does 4,500 J of work to push a mound of soil to the top of a ramp that is 15 m high. The ramp is at an
Andreas93 [3]

Answer:

170 N

Explanation:

Given in the question that, work a bulldozer can do = 4500 J

<h3>Step 1</h3>

We will use trigonometry identity to find the distance bulldozer will travel up the hill

sin(35) = opp/hypo

sin(35) = 15/hypo

hypo = 15/sin(35)

hypo = 26.15m

<h3>Step 2</h3>

Formula to use

work done = force × distance

Plug values in the above formula

4500 = force x 26.15

force = 4500/26.15

force = 172.08

force ≈ 170 N
