A Shaolin monk of mass 60 kg is able to do a ‘finger stand’: he supports his whole weight on his two index fingers, giving him a total contact area of 4 cm 2 with the ground. Calculate the pressure he exerts on the ground (include units), and write your answer to two significant figures.

1500000 Pa

Explanation:

The formula for pressure is force per unit area.

P=F/A where  F is force and A is area

Given that ;

F= mass * acceleration due to gravity

F= 60 * 9.81 = 588.6 = 589 N

A= area = 4cm² = 0.0004 m²

P= F/A = 589 / 0.0004

P= 1471500

P=1500000 Pa

the answer is neither ball has a charge.

because if they were both positively charged, they will repel each other.

if they were positively and negatively charged, they will seek.

answer: the metamorphic rocks are formed when they are exposed to high pressure and high temperatures. this happens when one of the earth's plates comes in contact with the other plate by traveling in opposite directions, straight into each other or slipping under one another. the friction that is caused by this activity results in   melting of rocks and when it cools they are known as metamorphic rocks. this process needs a controlled amount of pressure and temperature otherwise it may turn into magma.
