Answer - 12,900 Newtons

Explanation

First, we find the volume of the water
Volume = Area * Heinght
= 1.5 m² x 7 m
=  10.5 m³
 
Covert the volume to liters
1 m³ of water = 1000  liters
10.5 m³ of water = 10.5 m³ * 1000 liters liter/m³
= 10,500 liters
 
Use the volume of water to calculate the mass
1 liter of water weighs 1 kg
10,500 liters of water = 10,500 * 1 kg/liter
= 10,500 kg
 
Now, we can calculate the force of gravity on the water
Force of gravity on the water = Weight of the water
Weight = Mass * Acceleration
 
Mass = 10,500kg
Acceleration (due to gravity) = 9.8 m/s²

Force of gravity on the water
= Weight of the water
= Mass * Acceleration
= 10,500 kg * 9.8 m/s²
 = 102,900 Newtons

The velocity of an object is positive and steadily increasing. Which of the following graphs represents how the acceleration of
stiv31 [10]
If an object's velocity is steadily increasing it means that the acceleration is constant at a certain value.

Choice A shows an acceleration of zero which would only be true if the object was not moving or if its velocity was not changing.

Choice B gives us a graph showing acceleration increasing over time and is therefore incorrect.

Choice C is correct because the acceleration is constant. Steadily increasing tells us that the acceleration is fixed at a certain value.

Choice D is incorrect an represents a constant negative acceleration. This would be the case if the object was steadily decreasing in velocity.
