Suppose for some reason you have to walk in bare feet across a short distance covered by broken glass. Would you want the pieces of glass to be large or small?
I was thinking smaller as well p=f/a
Homework Answers
If you make the broken pieces smaller, then the area of contact between your legs and the pieces also becomes smaller, But the force always remains the same. (cause force depends on your weight and how you walk) So as the area becomes smaller, the pressure increases. More pressure equals more chances of penetration. So do you want glass pieces to puncture your skin? :P

GardenTraker Suppose that you and some other students have done lawn care, or been groundskeepers, and you have decided to go out on your own and open a business that offers landscaping services. Your goal is to develop a list of clients for whom you provide regular and recurring services, such as mowing and weeding, plus specialty services, such as pruning, garden preparation, sprinkler installation and repair, and the like. You need an information system for tracking customers, services you...

Suppose that you have two metal spheres connected by a thin wire located across the origin from one another on the x-axis, kept a distance d from one another. Furthermore, both spheres have equal and opposite charges, which oscillate with respect to time such that the charge on one of the spheres is q(t)-osuppose that we knew that the average power (over time) radiated by theses charges out of a spherical surface of radius R> > d about the origin...

Approximation At some point, scientists are confronted with the recognition that some math problems do not have exact answers. This is very different than the math we learn in high school and college, which typically represents math as a construction that only has exact answers (2 + 2 = 4 and not any other number) What is the expected time of diffusion of biologically important molecules at different scales? There is no exact answer to a question like how long...

The short descriptions that follow provide information about two different companies. In each case, there is at least one major problem with the way the company is currently approaching the new product development process. Read and evaluate each statement carefully, and then explain: a) your diagnosis of the problem, and b) your recommendation for what the company should do as a substitute for what is described in the case situation. Assurance Drug Company has developed a promising new nonprescription tablet...

You are interested in investing in some corporate bonds from companies that have been severely hurt by the Covid virus. You do some research and find there are five companies whose bonds are currently yielding around 20%. Each of the bonds is described in the table below. Answer the questions that follow.

1-1 Suppose you want to make a scale model of a hydrogen atom. You choose, for the nucleus, a small ball bearing with a radius of 1.5 mm. The radius of the hydrogen atom is 0.529 × 10−10 m and the radius of the nucleus is 1.2 × 10−15 m. (a) What would be the radius of the model? (b) Suppose that now you want to make a scale model of the solar system using the same ball bearing as...

Question 2 Suppose you have a fair coin (a coin is considered fair if there is an equal probability of being heads or tails after a flip). In other words, each coin flip i follows an independent Bernoulli distribution X Ber(1/2). Define the random variable X, as: i if coin flip i results in heads 10 if coin flip i results in tails a. Suppose you flip the coin n = 10 times. Define the number of heads you observe...

Men tend to have longer feet than women. So, if you find a really long footprint at the scene of a crime, then in the absence of any other evidence, you would probably conclude that the criminal was a man. And conversely, if you find a really short footprint at the scene of a crime, then (again in the absence of any other information), you would probably conclude that the criminal was a woman. What is the probability that you...
