Answer:

  1.343 atm

Explanation:

The mass of water above 1 square meter of swimming pool bottom is ...

  M = (3.5 m)·(1000 kg/m^3) = 3500 kg/m^2

Then the force exerted by the water on the pool bottom is ...

  F = Mg = (3500 kg/m^2)(9.8 m/s^2) = 34300 N/m^2 = 34300 Pa

Compared with atmospheric pressure, this is ...

  34,300/10^5 = 0.343 . . . . atmospheres

Added to the atmospheric pressure on the water's surface, the total pressure on the pool bottom is 1.343 atmospheres.

What is the unit for work is called
emmasim [6.3K]

Answer:

The unit you should use for work done and energy is the joule (J) which is indeed the same as the newton metre (N m).

There is another physical quantity which is the product of force and distance and that is torque or moment of a force.

The unit you should use for torque is the newton metre (Nm) and not the joule.

Naming the units of work done and torque differently helps to emphasis the fact that work done and torque refer to two different physical quantities although the definitions of both quantities have the product of force and distance in them.

work done=force→⋅displacement→ and torque→=force→×displacement→

Hope I helped

an automobile engineer found that the impact of a truck colliding at 16 km/h with a concrete pillar caused the bumper to indent
Zolol [24]
<span>To find the acceleration we are given two facts to begin. The impact at 16 km/h and the dent of 6.4 cm, or 0.064 meters. In solving the problem uniform acceleration is assumed, which would mean the avg speed during the impact was 8 km/hr by taking 16/2. We know distance = rate*time (d=r*t) . So t = d / r, so 0.64/8 = 0.008hr for t. Now we can solve for acceleration by taking a = 16 / 0.008 = 2000 km/hr.</span>
