How do you calculate the force of a high heel?

What material will absorb the sound of the high heel shoe?

Why pointed end of a high heel sandal has a greater impact on the ground than a flat heel sandal?

The pointed end of a high heel sandal concentrates the wearer's weight onto a smaller surface area, increasing pressure and impact on the ground. This makes it more likely to produce dents or marks on surfaces compared to a flat heel sandal, which distributes weight over a larger area and reduces the pressure applied to the ground.


Why is it easier to walk on soft sand with flat shoe than with a pencil heel shoe?

the pressure applied by the flat shoes is evenly/ uniformly divided over the sole of the shoes so the pressure is not acting together at any point its divided where as with pencil heel shoes the entire pressure is concentrated on the heel hence it sinks. Save

Why is it that a girl with a high heel shoe can do more damage to a wooden floor that an elephant?

I am not quite sure whether this really is the case. But the idea is that the high heel shoe might possibly exert more pressure on the floor. Pressure is force divided by area, so if the heel has a sharp point, it may cause quite a bit of pressure.


How high are the highest wearable high heels?

For experienced high heel wearers it is generally agreed that the highest heel that can be worn comfortably is between 5 and 5 ½ inches. This is assuming there is no platform sole and the heel is a stiletto, a high heel shoe with no platform sole is often referred to as "single sole". It should also be remembered that heel height for a particular shoe is approximate and is dependent on shoe size, for example a 5 inch heel will increase in height to 5 ½ usually if the shoe size is greater than E.U. size 41. This is to maintain proportion between length of the shoe and height of the heel.
