A 175-lb woman stands on a vinyl floor wearing stiletto high-heel shoes. If the heel has the dimensions shown, determine the average normal stress she exerts on the floor and compare it with the average normal stress developed when a man having the same weight is wearing flat-heeled shoes. Assume the load is applied slowly, so that dynamic effects can be ignored. Also, assume the entire weight is supported only by the heel of one shoe. 1.2 in. 0.5 in. 0.3 in. A --0.1 in.

MECHANICS OF DEFORMABLE BODIES. UPVOTE WILL BE GIVEN. PLEASE WRITE THE COMPLETE SOLUTIONS LEGIBLY. NO LONG EXPLANATION NEEDED. A block with a weight W hangs from a pin at A. Support bars AB and AC are pinned to the support at B and C. Bar AB has a cross-sectional area of 750mm2 and 500mm2 for bar AC. Neglecting the weights of the bars, determine the maximum safe value of W if the stress in bar AB is limited to 100MPa and that in bar AC to 125MPa.
