mestny [16]
Tenemos.

Masa de la mesa = 20kg
Masa encima = 10kg
Masa total = 30kg
Area de cada pata = 20cm² = 20cm² * 1/10000cm² * 1m² =0,002m²

Presió(P)n que se ejerce sobre cada pata.

P =F/A
P = Masa por gravedad/A Masa = 30kg Gravedad =9,8m/s²
P =(30kg * 9,8m/s²)/0,002m²
P = 294kg * m/s²/0,002m² Pero kg *m/s² = Nw
P = 294Nw0,002m²
P = 147000 Nw/m² Pero Nw/m² = pa
p =1,47 * 10⁵ pa

Respuesta.
La presión que se ejerce sobre cada pata es de 1,47 * 10⁵pa
