Describe your results. How close to the real value was your calculated value?
Summarize any difficulties or problems you had preforming the experiment that might affected the results. Describe how you might change the procedure to avoid these problems. Think about the relationship of the "footprint area" to total supported weight. Use this idea to help explain why animals with larger weights have larger feet. Give example.

Animals with larger weights compensate for the large force they exert on the ground, by having a large footprint area in order to reduce the pressure of their feet on the ground.

Why do animals with large weight have large feet?

Large animals such as elephants, lions, hippopotamus, etc, usually have a large foot print area compared to smaller animals.

This larger footprint area helps to support their weight.

The weight of these animals exerts a force as well as pressure on the ground.

Pressure, force and area are related by the equation below:

  • Pressure = Force/Area

The larger the area, the smaller the pressure.

In order to compensate for the large force they exert on the ground, larger animals possess a large footprint area in order to reduce the pressure of their feet on the ground.
