Question

Dorji weight 1500n.if the total surface area of soles of his feet is 0.5 m2 what is the pressure exerted by his body on the ground​

Answer 1

Answer:

P = 3000 Pa

Explanation:

Weight of Dorji, W = F = mg = 1500 N

The total surface area of soles of his feet is 0.5 m²

We need to find the pressure exerted by his body on the ground​. The pressure is equal to the force acting per unit area. So,

$P=\dfrac{1500\ N}{0.5\ m^2}\\\\=3000\ Pa$

So, the pressure exerted by his body on the ground​ is 3000 Pa.
