Chapter 6, Problem 6.30QP
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation: An explanation corresponding to the fact that travelling over deep snow is easier while wearing boots and snowshoes rather than just boots is to be stated.

Concept introduction: Snowshoes work by distributing the weight of the individual over a bigger area with the goal that the individual's foot does not sink totally into the snow. The ratio of force per unit area of an object is defined as pressure. The formula to calculate pressure is,

P=FA

To determine: An explanation corresponding to the fact that travelling over deep snow is easier while wearing boots and snowshoes rather than just boots.
