True or FalseIf an object is submerged in water, on earth, at a depth of 3km, the Pressure on the object is2.94 x 10^7 Pa
1 answer:
The pressure of a submerged object in a fluid is given by:
where ρ is the density of the fluis, g is the acceleration of gravity, h is the depth of the object and Patm is the pressure of the atmosphere. In this case we know that:
• The density of water is 1000 kg/m^3
,• The acceleration of gravity is 9.8 m/s^2
,• The depth of the object is 3 km, that is, 3000 m.
,• The atmospheric pressure is 101325 pascals.
Plugging these values in the equation given above we have:
Therefore, the pressure at this depth is 2.95x10^7 Pa.

1 horsepower is equal to 746 W, so the power of the engine is
The power is also defined as the energy E per unit of time t:
Where the energy corresponds to the work done by the engine, which is
. Re-arranging the formula, we can calculate the time t needed to do this amount of work:
