How does the amount of pressure you exert on the floor when you are lying down compare with the amount of pressure exert when you are standing up?

Since your weight remains constant, the only variable is the area. Pressure is the ratio of Force to Area, implying that the larger the area the smaller the pressure and vice versa. Since lying down translate into occupying a larger area than when standing up, a lower pressure is exerted on the floor while lying compared to when standing on the floor.


How does a karate player break a pile of tiles in a single bow?

pressure=force/area so force is directive propotional to pressure. how much force a karate player will put on that much pressure will apply on that pile of tile. as from the formula we get that pressure is inversely propotional to area so if the area will less then the pressure will be more and by this way the karate player brokes the piles of tiles.


Why does a woman wearing spiked high heel shoes can damage a floor more easily than when she is wearing flat shoes?

The pressure (weight per area) exerted on the floor is higher when wearing high heels because the surface area of the bottom of a pair of high heels is much lower than for flat shoes. And higher pressure can do more damage.


How does pressure move in two dimensions?

In 2D, pressure moves in the direction of the force. If the force is an upwards force, it creates an upwards pressure. Your weight is a downwards force and it applies a pressure down onto the floor.


Does a gymnast exert more pressure on the floor when she does a handstand or when she does a split?

if the well pressure switch goes with the tank then the second floor pressure would more closely match the well pressure setpoints and the ground floor would have slightly higher pressure. with the tank and pressure switch on the lower floor the lower floor would more closely see the well pressure setpoints and the second floor would get slightly lower pressure.
