A79 kg person sits on a 3.7 kg chair. each leg of the chair makes contact with the floor in a circle that is 1.3 cm in diameter. determine the pressure exerted on the floor by each leg of the chair, assuming all weight is evenly distributed.

I'll assume that the chair has four legs.

Since the chair weights 3.7 kg by itself, it will weigh (79+3.7)=82.7 kg with the person sitting on it. And each of the chair's legs will take about (82.7/4)=20.675 kg.

Each leg touches the floor in a circle with 1.3cm diameter. The area of that circle is about (3.14*(1.3/2)^2)=1.327 cm^2.

Pressure is measured by force per area. So, the pressure from each leg is about 20.675kg / 1.327cm^2. That simplifies to 15.58 kg/cm^2.

This is what i found on google “kinetic energy. energy is transferred from one object to another when a reaction takes place. energy comes in many forms and can be transferred from one object to another as heat, light, or motion, to name a few. this energy would be in the form of motion, with the person lifting the blue ball to a higher level.” i hope this you
