Chapter 1.5, Problem 31P
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 entire weight is supported only by the heel of one shoe.

6. A cylindrical pressure vessel has an inner diameter of 9 ft and a thickness of 1 in determine the
maximum internal pressure it can sustain so that neither its circumferential nor its longitudinal stress
component exceeds 20 ksi. Under the same conditions, what is the maximum internal pressure that a
similar-size spherical vessel can sustain?
