Answer: 0.176 m

Explanation:

Given

Pressure of glycerine, p = 2170 Pa

Density of glycerine, ρ = 1.26*10^3 kg/m³

Depth, h = ?

To solve, we use the formula of pressure

P = ρgh

Where

ρ = density of glycerine

P = pressure of glycerine

g = acceleration due to gravity

h = depth of glycerine

2170 = 1.26*10^3 * 9.8 * h

2170 = 12348 * h

h = 2170 / 12348

h = 0.176 m

Therefore, the depth below the surface at which the pressure of glycerine is greater than the atmospheric pressure is 0.176 m

In deep space, there is very little friction. Once they launch a probe into deep space, where there are no external forces actin
Charra [1.4K]

Answer:

move at constant velocity.

Explanation:

Newton's first law (also known as law of inertia) states that:

"when the net force acting on an object is zero, the object will keep its state of rest or if it is moving, it will continue moving at constant velocity".

In the case of the probe, friction in deep space is negligible, therefore when the engine is shut down, there are no more forces acting on the probe: the net force therefore will be zero, so the probe will move at constant velocity.
