PLEASE HELP ME THIS QUESTION FASTThe foot of an elephant has an area of 2200kg,find the pressure exerted by the elephant on the ground (acceleration due to gravity =10m/s²). |

Answer» Answer: mg / (4A) Explanation: Pressure = Force / Area In given case force is equal to ¼ of weight of elephant (assuming weight of elephant is equally distributed to all the FOUR foots). If "m" is the MASS of elephant then, Pressure = (mg/4) / A Substitute the values and solve the pressure. Note: "....area of 2200 KG" doesn't makes any sense. kg is UNIT of mass. please check your QUESTION once. |
