How much pressure is under an elephant's foot?
approximately 12 psi when standing on all fours
If you stand on one foot you increase the pressure you exert on the ground because?
you have decreased the area over which the force is applied, and pressure is force per unit area
Does air exert any pressure?
There is about 2 ton of air on every square foot of the Earth (less at high altitudes)
If a board with an area of 3m2 has a 12 N force exerted on it what is the pressure on the board?
Simply Pressure = Force/Area Force=12N Area=40m2 P=12/40 Pressure=0.3 N/m2 For Fun: would the pressure be greater from an elephant or an adult male? Area of one elephant foot = 0.75 x 0.75 m2 Area of four elephant feet = 2.25 m2 Area of one human foot = 0.27 x 0.1 m2 Area of four human feet = 0.108 m2 Weight of elephant = 30000 N Weight of human = 850 N Pressure on elephant's feet = 13333 N Pressure on human's feet = 7870 N Not a Huge difference!!!!
What is the surface area of an elephant's foot?
It depends how big the elephant is.
When does man exert greater pressure on the floor while standing or walking?
tiptoesWhen standing on tiptoe, the force exerted by your body remains the same, but is now concentrated in a smaller area. Pressure is measured in force divided by area. By reducing the area, you increase the pressure.
What is the biggest animal on foot?

What body part on an elephant is the heaviest?

Give an example to explain how gas exert pressure.?
Its the fact that the gases have variable volume that makes the gas exert pressure in other words the number of collisons between the gas molecules and the walls of the container that is calculated as pressure(it is assumed the intermolecular collison are elastic this failed in case of the ideal gas which resulted in van der waall's pressure and volume correction to the ideal gas equation) the potential of this gas pressure can be observed by small experiment in which a slab of wood which is almost foot in thickness(i think 25 cms) was exposed to a pressure of nearly 90 ATM it was crushed to paper!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
What is the English name for karnakelangu?
