A young wowan of mass 60kg puts all her weight on to one heel of one shoe which has an are of 1cm2. Calculate the pressure exerted by the shoe on the floor (assuming the acceleration due to gravity to be 9.81m/s2

Hmmm any help please? :rolleyes:

This should be all you need. If you add a bit of Newton's first. ;)

A LOT of pressure! Ha ha! Check it out;
Pressure Under High Heels

I remember a news story about a woman that stamped on a man's hand with high-heels and the prosecution was saying it was assault with a weapon!

Nasty lady! Lol!

Cheers mate :D

5886 kN/m2 is what I got like.

Thanks for the quick response anyway :)

Looks right to me :)
