The larger pointed exert larger pressure than ablunt end because the sharp end takes small than the blunt end.

Which has more force a blunt stick or a pointed stick?

If the stick is just sitting there, it doesn't exert any force at all. If you're swinging the stick, the shape of the stick won't matter much; the force will be determined by the speed and mass of the stick. If you are poking with the stick, then the FORCE will be the same whether it is blunt or pointed - but a pointed stick will concentrate the force into a smaller AREA, so the force per area will be a lot higher with a sharp stick than with a blunt one.


How much pressure can an arbor press exert?

An arbor press can typically exert pressure ranging from 1 to 5 tons, depending on the size and design of the press. However, larger and more heavy-duty arbor presses can exert even higher pressure, up to 20 tons or more.


Which needles are made to exert more pressure?

Thicker needles are designed to exert more pressure as they have a larger surface area interacting with the material being sewn. Thicker needles are typically used for heavier fabrics or multiple layers.


Will you exert more pressure when you stand on your toes or when you stand flatfooted?

You will exert more pressure when you stand on your toes because your body weight is concentrated on a smaller surface area. This increases the pressure on the toes compared to when you are standing flatfooted with the weight distributed across a larger surface area.


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.

Why a hammer which is used to drive a nail into a piece of wood can exert a greater force on the nail than the exerted by a larger mass placed on top of the nail?

The sharp point tends to work as a wedge and move the fibers off to the side. A blunt nail has to cut the fibers in order to go into the wood. This is because of pressure.
