Answer:
Pressure applied by the man= 285103.125 or 41.35
Explanation:
Pressure is defined as the perpendicular force applied per unit area.
i.e.
Now,
where, = mass of the body(man) = 93 kg
= acceleration due to gravity of Earth = 9.81
covered is equal to the area of both stilts(a man generally stands on two feet)
therefore
and putting in the values, we get,
Now we need to convert to our required units:
(We can get the above result by individually converting kg to lb and meters to inches respectively)
Using the above relations we get,
