An asian elephant has a weight of 52,900 newtons. this enormous weight is balanced on four feet. in a circus act, these elephants often balance on one foot. the average surface area of a foot pad is 2,920 cm2. what pressure is experienced at the food pad if an elephant balances all its weight on one foot?

Answer;

≈ 18,116,438 N/m² or 18,116,438 Pascals

Explanation;Pressure is the force exerted on a unit area.Thus pressure is given by; Force/ Area. Therefore, pressure is measured in N/m² or pascals.

In this case, the force is 52,900 Newtons

The area = 2,920 cm²

But; 1 m² = 1000000 cm², thus;

Area = 2,920 cm²/ 1000000 cm²

        = 0.00292 m²

Pressure = 52,900 Newtons/ 0.00292 m²

               = 18,116,438.356 N/m²

               ≈ 18,116,438 N/m² or 18,116,438 Pascals

Sorry i dont understand the question can you rephase it?

C. definite shape, definite volume. that is a solid.
