Policy makers in the U.S. government have long tried to write laws that encourage growth in per capita real GDP. These laws typi

cally do one of three things: a. They encourage firms to invest more in research and development in order to boost technology. b. They encourage individuals to save more in order to boost the physical capital stock. c. They encourage individuals to invest more in education in order to boost the stock of human capital. For each of the above three points, please name a law or government program with that intention.

Issuing grants from the National Institute of Health
Offering tax credits for R&D costs

(b) <u>They encourage individuals to save more in order to boost the physical capital stock</u>

Lowering tax rates on incomes earned through savings
Permitting citizens to open health and savings account
Offering retirement savings plan
Coming up with 529 education savings account

(c) <u>They encourage individuals to invest more in education in order to boost the stock of human capital</u>

Calculate the differential pressure in kPa across the hatch of a submarine 320m below the surface of the sea. Assume the atmosph

kicyunya [14]

Answer:

The pressure difference across hatch of the submarine is 3217.68 kpa.

Explanation:

Gauge pressure is the pressure above the atmospheric pressure. If we consider gauge pressure for finding pressure differential then no need to consider atmospheric pressure as they will cancel out. According to hydrostatic law, pressure varies in the z direction only.

Given:

Height of the hatch is 320 m

Surface gravity of the sea water is 1.025.

Density of water 1000 kg/m³.

Calculation:

Step1

Density of sea water is calculated as follows:

$S.G=\frac{\rho_{sw}}{\rho_{w}}$

Here, density of sea water is $\rho_{sw}$ , surface gravity is S.G and density of water is $\rho_{w}$ .

Substitute all the values in the above equation as follows:

$S.G=\frac{\rho_{sw}}{\rho_{w}}$

$1.025=\frac{\rho_{sw}}{1000}$

$\rho_{sw}=1025$ kg/m³.

Step2

Difference in pressure is calculated as follows:

$\bigtriangleup p=rho_{sw}gh$

$\bigtriangleup p=1025\times9.81\times320$

$\bigtriangleup p=3217680$ pa.

Or

$\bigtriangleup p=(3217680pa)(\frac{1kpa}{100pa})$

$\bigtriangleup p=3217.68$ kpa.

Thus, the pressure difference across hatch of the submarine is 3217.68 kpa.
