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

Density is the best property to use, as while multiple different metals could create cubes with the same color, mass, or volume, no different metal could create a cube with the same mass and volume.  Density is based on mass and volume, and as a result no two different metals will have the same density.

If a ball with an original velocity of zero is dropped from a tall structure and it takes 7 seconds to hit the ground, what velo
Colt1911 [192]
The velocity of the ball when it reaches the ground is equal to B. 68.6 m/s. This value was obtained from the formula Vf = Vi + at. Vf is the final velocity. Vi is the initial velocity. The acceleration is "a", while the time of travel is "t". The solution is:

<span>Vf = Vi + at
</span>Vf = 0 + (-9.8 m/s^2) (7 s)
Vf = -68.6 m/s

The negative sign denotes the direction of the ball.
