The two thigh bones (femur bones) each of cross-sectional area `10 cm^(2)` support the upper part of a human body of mass 40 kg . Estimate the average pressure sustained by the femurs. `g=10m//s^(2)`

Explanation

To solve the problem, we need to calculate the average pressure sustained by the femur bones when supporting the upper part of the human body. Here’s a step-by-step solution:

### Step 1: Calculate the Force Exerted by the Body
The force exerted by the body can be calculated using the formula:
\[ \text{Force} = \text{mass} \times \text{acceleration due to gravity} \]
Given:
- Mass \( m = 40 \, \text{kg} \)
- Acceleration due to gravity \( g = 10 \, \text{m/s}^2 \)
