How much pressure do you experience when you balance a 5 kg ball on the tip of your finger, which, let us say, has an area of 1 cm squared? |

A LOT OF PRESSURE Thats why I had to quit the Globetrotters, balancing balls on my fingers is just a lot more stressfull then you'd think. Good question. Keep 'em coming. |

the answer can be found by using the equation Pressure=Force/Area So, using Pascals(N/M^2) for Pressure And force in Newtons(N) is 5kg*9.8m/s^2(accelleration due to gravity)=49N Area in meters squared is .01m*.01m=.0001m^2 Pressure=49N/.0001m^2 Pressure=490000 Pascals(N/m^2) Hope that solves it to your needs |
