A 50-kg woman balances on one heel of apair of high heeled shoes. If the heel is circularand has a radius of 0.5 cm, what pressuredoes she exert on the floor?
Added by Mohamed E.
Step 1
Given radius, \(r = 0.5 \, cm = 0.5 \times 10^{-2} \, m\) Area, \(A = \pi r^2 = \pi \times (0.5 \times 10^{-2})^2 = \pi \times 0.25 \times 10^{-4} = 0.785 \times 10^{-4} \, m^2\) Show more…
