Soft ground lessens the pressure by conforming to the shape of our feet.-jennie
Sturdy ground has a very rough surface, which causes pain on our feet.
Stepping on a sturdy ground gives the maximum normal force, which causes pain on our feet.
Wearing comfortable, well-fitting shoes (particularly shoes that conform to the shape of the foot
and don’t cause pressure areas)

If the atmospheric pressure exerts a very large force on our body, why can we not feel it?
The fluid inside our body exerts an equal amount of outward force. Jennie

Comparing the pressure at the bottom of a cylindrical and cubic container filled with water, which
of the following is the most correct if the both containers have the same height?
The pressure at the bottom of the cubic container will have a larger pressure.
The pressure at the bottom of the cylindrical container will have a larger pressure.
The pressure is the same. Because they are both filled with water.
The pressure is the same. It does not depend on the shape of the container, but on the depth.
