    Answer:

    Pressure = 9.94 x 10⁶ Pascals

    Explanation:

    given data

    mass = 51 kg

    radius = 0.400 cm

    solution

    we know Pressure that is express as here

    Pressure = total force on an area ÷ the area of the area   ……………..1

    and

    Force is the woman’s weight so weight will be

    Weight = mass × gravity  ……………..2

    put here value

    Weight = 51 × 9.8 m/s²

    Weight = 499.8 Newtons

    and

    Area of a circle of bottom of the heel = (π) × (radius)²    ……………….3

    put here value

    Area = (π) × (0.40 cm)²

    Area = 0.502654 cm²

    Area = 0.0000502654 m²

    and

    now we put value in equation 1 we get

    Pressure = force ÷ area

    Pressure = 499.8 ÷ 0.0000502654

    Pressure = 9943221.381 N/m²

    Pressure = 9.94 x 10⁶ Pascals
