A large pig of height 40 cm and mass 30 kg is loading weight onto their legs at 110ℎ of the breaking compression (i. e stress) of the bones. (a) How tall (height) can this pig species get before their legs not longer support their weight? (make sure to include units in your answer).
(b) What is the expected mass of the max-sized pig (from part (a))?
Hint: We learned that when the body of an animal scales up in all dimensions by a factor of , the leg diameter needs to grow disproportionately by 23 in order to support the same weight.
