Suppose you pour water into a container until it reaches a depth of 21 cm. next, you carefully pour in a 11-cm thickness of oliv

e oil so that it floats on top of the water. what is the pressure at the bottom of the container? (express your answer to four significant digits.)

<span>3040. Pascals. The density of olive oil is 0.911 g/cm^3 and the density of water is 1.000 g/cm^3. To calculate the pressure of 1 cm of water, 1000 kg/m^3 * 9.8 m/s^2 * 0.01 m = 98.000 Pa To calculate the pressure of 1 cm of olive oil 911 kg/m^3 * 9.8 m/s^2 * 0.01 m = 89.278 Pa Now to calculate the pressure at the bottom of the container, simply add the products of how many cm of each fluid you have. So 21 * 98.000 Pa + 11 * 89.278 Pa = 2058 Pa + 982.058 Pa = 3040.058 Pa So the pressure at the bottom of the container will be 3040. Pascals.</span>

The equivalence between gravitational and inertial mass is explained in : the set of all of the events that happened on Earth
xxTIMURxx [149]

Answer:

The correct answer is theory of general relativity.

Explanation:

According to the statement of equivalence the gravitational mass force on an object standing on the surface of earth is same as the pseudo force that acts on it if it accelerated at acceleration equal to acceleration due to gravity.

According to Einestine both the forces are indistinguishable  as both the forces produce same effects. Thus both are equivalent and thus gravity is a phenomenon that can be analysed in a radically different way which gives some strange results such as bending of light, existence of black holes,e.t.c
