When do you apply more pressure: when walking or when standing still.

There are several things to understand when solving this problem.

1. When walking, we press on the surface with one foot.

2. Pressure is the ratio of the force to the surface area of ​​the force P = F / S.

When we stand

you act with a certain force on any surface with two feet.

When walking, we act on the surface with our feet alternately.

Accordingly, the impact area when walking is reduced.

for example

When we stand p = 100: 20 = 5 (F = 100, S = 20).

When walking, the area decreases P = 100: 10 = 10 (F = 100, S = 10).

Answer: When we walk, we apply more pressure.
