A research submarine has a 10-cm-diameter window that is 8.4 cm thick. The manufacturer says the window can withstand forces up

to 1.2×106 N . What is the submarine's maximum safe depth in salt water?
The pressure inside the submarine is maintained at 1.0 atm .
Express your answer using two significant figures.

Pnet = Po + dgh 

<span>Density of saltwater = 1030 kg/m^3. </span>

<span>Disregard the thickness. Assuming it's a circular window, then the area is pi(r^2). </span>

<span>d = 20 cm = 0.2 m </span>
<span>r = d/2 = 0.1 m </span>

<span>A = pi(r^2) </span>
<span>A = 3.14159265(.1^2) </span>
<span>A = 0.0314159265 m^2 </span>

<span>p = F/A </span>
<span>p = (1.1 x 10^6) / (0.0314159265) </span>
<span>p = 35,014,087.5 Pa </span>

<span>1 atm = 101,325 Pa </span>

<span>P = Po + dgh </span>
<span>h = (P - Po) / dg </span>
<span>h = (35,014,087.5 - 101,325) / (1030 x 9.81) </span>
<span>h = 3 455.23812 m </span>
<span>h = 3.5 km</span>

Answer: 15 km

Explanation:

The maximum pressure that the submarine can withheld would be equal to the maximum pressure that the window can withstand.

The maximum pressure that window can sustain is given by:

Pressure\frac{force}{Area]

Force = 1.2×10⁶ N

Area of the window = \pi r^{2}= 7.85\times 10^{-5} m^2

∵radius = (0.1 m)/2 = 0.05 m

⇒P = 1.2×10⁶ N ÷ 7.85 ×10⁻³ m² = 1.52 ×10⁸ N/m²

The pressure of the salt water at depth h is given by

P = ρ g h

where, ρ = 1027 kg/m³ is the density of the salt water, g is the acceleration due to gravity and h is the depth.

⇒1.52×10⁸ Pa =  (1027 kg/m³)(9.8 m/s²)(h)

⇒ h ≈ 15 km

Explain the relationship between resistance and the velocity of shortening.
butalik [34]
The velocity of shortening refers to the speed of the contraction from the muscle shortening while lifting a load. The relationship between the resistance and velocity of shortening is inverse. The greater the resistance, the shorter the velocity of shortening and the smaller the resistance, the larger the velocity of shortening.

Hopefully this help :)

Which of theses substances would be a poor conductor of electricity
lys-0071 [83]

Answer:

B. Water and sugar.

Explanation:

In the given options water and sugar would be the poor conductor of electricity. Other given options such as water and salt, water and Hcl and water and NaOH are better conductor of electricity because Hcl ,NaOH, salt (Nacl) can break into their ionic form whereas water and sugar will not.
