Why Railway tracks are laid on large sleepers?

Railway tracks are laid on large sleepers (also known as ties) to distribute the weight of the train and its cargo evenly across the ground, providing stability and preventing the tracks from sinking into the soil. The sleepers also support and anchor the rails, ensuring that they remain aligned and in place, even under the stress of heavy loads and moving trains.


Why are sleepers laid down under the rails of the trains?

this is because sleepers increase the area on which pressure of train is to be exerted.Thus pressure is not concentrated on a single point densely.therefore if there more area there would be less pressure and train will run smoothly


How do you know that the person is in a light or heavy sleep?

You can observe the person's breathing pattern, body movements, and the depth of their sleep. Light sleepers tend to move more frequently, have irregular breathing patterns, and are easily awakened by noises. Heavy sleepers tend to have more steady breathing, minimal body movements, and are harder to wake up.


If we wear high heels in one leg and sleepers in another leg which exerts pressure more preesure to the ground?

The leg wearing high heels would exert more pressure on the ground due to the smaller surface area in contact with the ground compared to the leg wearing sleepers. This pressure is distributed over a smaller area, increasing the force exerted on the ground.
