Force is defined as the rate of change of momentum.
The initial amount of momentum is
because water stops when it hit the wall total change of momentum must be
.
Now let's calculate the force.
We need to find
. This is the amount of water hiting the wall per second.
Our final formula would be:
And now we can calculate the answer:
Density is a physical property that describes the relationship between mass and volume. Density is the amount of matter in a given space, or volume.
Answer:
A 60 kg person standing on a platform at the surface of Saturn and they jumped, they would have to push with a force greater than 540 N
Explanation:
The gravitational attraction between an object on the surface of a planet and the planet is given by the weight of the object
Therefore the force needed to be applied for an object to lift off the surface of a planet = The weight of the object
The weight of the object on the surface of a planet = m × g
Where;
m = The mass of the object
g = The strength of gravity on the planet's surface in N/kg
The given parameters are;
The mass of the person standing on a platform at the surface of Saturn, m = 60 kg
The strength of gravity on the surface of Saturn = 9 N/kg
Therefore, we have;
The weight of the person = The force greater than which the person would have to push on the surface of Saturn so as to Jump = The weight of the person on the surface of Saturn = 60 kg × 9 N/kg = 540 N
Therefore, for a 60 kg person standing on a platform at the surface of Saturn and they jumped, they would have to push with a force greater than 540 N.
Answer:
1.28 x 10^5 Pa
Explanation:
The absolute pressure at the bottom of the tank of water is given by:
where
is the atmospheric pressure
is the water density
g = 9.8 m/s^2 is the acceleration of gravity
h = 2.50 m is the heigth of the column of water
Substituting into the formula, we find
