Question

A ballet dancer does a pirouette on the tip of his toe. If the dancer has a weight of 580 N and the tip of his ballet shoe measures 0.02m by 0.01 m, what pressure does his toe exert on the stage?

Open in App

Solution

Pressure = $\frac{F o r c e}{A r e a} = \frac{580 N}{0.02 m \times 0.01 m} = \frac{580 N}{0.0002 m^{2}} = 2900000 P a$
