The human femur has a compressive strength of 160 MPa, whereas the horse femur has a compressive strength of 140 MPa. What is the effective cross-sectional area of the femur in a horse? (Note: Since the center of the femur contains bone marrow, which has essentially no compressive strength, the effective cross-sectional area is about 80% of the total cross-sectional area.) cm2arrow_forward
