Answer:

Pressure difference between head and toes = 16872.2 Pa

Explanation:

The pressure difference between the head and toes of the man will be equal to the water pressure exerted at his toes. This can be found as follows:

Water pressure = (density of water) * (gravity) * (height of water)

Density of water = 1000 kg/m^3

Gravity = 9.81 m/s^2

Height of water = height of man = 1.72 m

Water pressure = 1000 * 9.81 * 1.72

Water pressure = 16872.2 Pa

A "moving sidewalk" in an airport terminal moves at 1.0 m/s and is 35.0 m long. If a woman steps on at one end and walks at 1.5
pishuonlain [190]

Answer:

a.14 s

b.70 s

Explanation:

a.Let the sidewalk moving in positive x- direction.

Speed  of sidewalk relative to ground=v_s=1m/s

Speed of women relative to sidewalk=v=1.5m/s

The speed of women relative to the ground

v_w=v_s+v=1+1.5=2.5m/s

Distance=35 m

Time=\frac{distance}{speed}

Using the formula

Time taken by women to reach the opposite end if she walks in the same direction the sidewalk is moving=\frac{35}{v_w}=\frac{35}{2.5}=14s

b.If she gets on at the end opposite the end in part (a)

Then, we take displacement negative.

Speed  of sidewalk relative to ground=v_s=1m/s

Speed of women relative to sidewalk=v=-1.5 m/s

The speed of women relative to the ground=v_w=v_s+v=1-1.5=-0.5m/s

Time=\frac{-35}{-0.5}=70 s

Hence, the women takes 70 s to reach the opposite end if she walks in the opposite direction the sidewalk is moving.
