The answer is a.12.5kg because i just did the test and it was correct.
hope this helps
Complete question:
A diver is 10 m below the surface of water. Calculate the pressure the fluid exerted on the diver. The acceleration of gravity is 9.8 m/s2 and the density of the water is 1000 kg/m3. Answer in units of Pa. Show your work.
Answer:
Tthe pressure the fluid exerted on the diver is 1.99 x 10⁵ Pa
Explanation:
Given;
density of water, ρ = 1000 kg/m³
diver's position below the surface of the water, h = 10 m
acceleration due to gravity, g = 9.8 m/s²
Let the atmospheric pressure, P₀ = 101325 Pa
The pressure 10 m below the surface of the water is calculated as;
P = P₀ + ρgh
P = 101325 Pa + (1000 x 9.8 x 10)Pa
P = 199325 Pa
P = 1.99 x 10⁵ Pa.
Therefore, the pressure the fluid exerted on the diver is 1.99 x 10⁵ Pa
<span>Thermocline is a layer between
warm water from the ocean’s surface and cool water from below the ocean. In here,
the temperature decreases rapidly from the warmer layer to the colder layer. A thermocline forms due to the heat of the sun
heating the ocean’s surface. Because of the difference in density between warm
and cooler ocean water, cooler ocean water sinks and warmer ocean water floats.
This is caused due to the heat and mass transfer between particles of the
ocean. The answer is letter C. The sun’s radiation does not extend below a
certain depth; therefore, deeper ocean water is colder than surface water.</span>
