Find the pressure exerted on the floor by each leg

Reference no: EM13340803

A 65 kg man in a 5.9 kg chair tilts back so that all his weight is balanced on two legs of the chair. Assume that each leg makes contact with the floor over a circular area of radius 0.9 cm. Find the pressure exerted on the floor by each leg. The acceleration of gravity is 9.8 m/s2 .
