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.

Objects change motion due to forces. When they become unbalanced, their motion changes, while balanced forces cause constant mot
Neko [114]

Answer:

Balanced forces: When a number of forces acting on a body do not cause any change in its state of rest or of uniform motion along a straight line then the forces are said to be balanced forces. In other words, a body is said to be underbalanced forced when the resulting force acting on the body is zero.

The balanced forces:

⋅ Cannot set any stationary body into motion.

⋅ May change the shape and size of soft objects.

⋅ Cannot change the speed/velocity of a moving body.

Unbalanced forces:

When the resultant of all the forces acting on a body is not zero, then forces are called unbalanced forces.

Example:

⋅ Game of tug of war: When the forces exerted by both the teams are equal, then the rope does not move. But, if the force applied by team A is greater than team B, then the rope, as well as members of the weaker team, i.e., B, will be pulled towards A. The unbalanced force can (a) Set a stationary body in motion.

⋅ Set a moving body at rest.

⋅ Change the direction of motion.

A television of mass 12 kg sits on a table. The coefficient of static friction between the table and the television is 0.83. Wha
Zinaida [17]
The normal reaction between the television and the table is
N = 12 × 9.8 m/s² = 117.6 Newtons

But the static coefficient of friction is μ = 0.83

When the television is about to slide on the table, the applied force should overcome the force due to static friction;
Thus; the applied force should be at least 
F = μN
  = 0.83 × 117.6 N
  = 97.608 Newtons
Therefore; the minimum applied force will be 97.6 Newtons.
