Answer: 21965.517 Pa
Explanation:
Pressure is the force
exerted by a gas, a liquid or a solid on a surface (or area)
, its unit is Pascal
which is equal to
and its formula is:
(1)
In this case we have the surface of a sole of a tennis shoe:
(2)
And the mass of the person who wears it:
On the other hand, we know the weight is the force the Earth exerts on people and objects due gravity
:
(3)
Substituting (2) and (3) in (1):
(4)
Finally:
This is the pressure the shoe exert on the ground
The approximate speed of sound in dry (0% humidity) air, in meters per second, at temperatures near 0 °C, can be calculated from
Here
Temperature in Celsius
Replacing with our values we have that
Therefore the speed of sound in air at that temperature is 366.1m/s
