The chair acts on the floor with a force of 50 N and generates a pressure of 10.000 Pa. What is the total support area of the chair legs?

The pressure is found by the formula: P = F / S, where P – pressure, F – force, S – support area
Substitute all known quantities into the formula:
10.000 = 50 / S
S = 50 / 10.000 = 0.005 m2 = 50 cm2
