Answer:

1.34 x 10^3 Pa

Explanation:

density of oil = 0.85 x 10^3 kg/m^3

g = 9.81 m/s^2

height of oil column = 16.1 cm = 0.161 m

Pressure on the surface of water = height of oil column x density of oil x g

                                                      = 0.161 x 0.85 x 10^3 x 9.81 = 1.34 x 10^3 Pa

Thus, the pressure on the surface of water is 1.34 x 10^3 Pa.

When hiking at altitude, the air pressure drops to 825,000Pa. Solve the force that site exerts against the side of a rectangular
OLga [1]

Answer:

The force is 1237500N

Explanation:

We can apply the following expression

pressure=\frac{Force}{Area}

To find the area of rectangular tent wall:

Area=length *width\\Area=2.00m*0.750m\\Area=1.5m^{2}

Now to find the force:

pressure=825,000pa

pressure=\frac{Force}{Area}

Force=pressure*Area\\Force=825000pa*1.5m^{2} \\Force=1237500N

The box leaves position x=0x=0 with speed v0v0. The box is slowed by a constant frictional force until it comes to rest at posit
const2013 [10]

Answer:

fr = ½ m v₀²/x

Explanation:

This exercise the body must be on a ramp so that a component of the weight is counteracted by the friction force.

The best way to solve this exercise is to use the energy work theorem

            W = ΔK

Where work is defined as the product of force by distance

           W = fr x cos 180

The angle is because the friction force opposes the movement

          Δk =K_{f} –K₀

          ΔK = 0 - ½ m v₀²

We substitute

         - fr x = - ½ m v₀²      

           fr = ½ m v₀²/x
