The two thigh bones each of cross-sectional area `15 cm^(2)` support the upper part of a person of mass 70 kg. The pressure sustained by these thigh bones is

`2.5xx10^5Nm^2`

`1.33xx10^5Nm^2`

`4.66xx10^5 Nm^2`s

`2.33xx10^5 Nm^2`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:

Pressure , `p=F/A = (70xx10)/(15xx10^(-4)xx2) = (7xx10^4)/(30)xx10^2`
`=2.33xx10^5m^(-2)`
