The greatest ocean depths on earth are found in the Marianas Trench near the Philippines, where the depth of the bottom of the t

rench is about 11.0 km. Calculate the gauge pressure due to the ocean at a depth of 10.2 km, assuming sea water density is constant all the way down. (The validity of the assumption of constant density is examined in one of the integrated concept problems in the textbook.)

Answer:

103063860 Pa

Explanation:

\rho = Density of seawater = 1030 kg/m³

g = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²

h = Depth at which pressure is being measured = 10.2 km

The gauge pressure is given by

p=\rho gh\\\Rightarrow p=1030\times 9.81\times 10.2\times 10^3\\\Rightarrow p=103063860\ Pa

Therefore, the gauge pressure at a depth of 10.2 km is 103063860 Pa

Why was Democritus considered a philosopher and not a scientist?
Alika [10]

Answer:

Democritus had no scientific instruments to extend the reach of his senses, so all of his experiments were just 'mind experiments', but because Democritus was a philosopher, he thought more into depth about why we humans are alive which led to the atomic theory.

What evidence do we have that Earth has a magnetic field surrounding the planet?
Ber [7]
A compass works the way it does because Earth has a magnetic field that looks a lot like the one in a magnet. The Earth's field is completely invisible, but it can be felt by a compass needle on the Earth's surface, and it reaches thousands of miles out into space.

Arada [10]
If you are under a tree, they kind of act like lightning rods, so stay away from trees, so roll in dat grass. Fun Fact: Lightning comes from the ground more than it comes from the sky, its like when you rub a blanket on your head, some lil' lightnings come from your head while a little come from the blanket, its the same with grass and clouds only, 10000 volts stronger and deadly.

A car goes from 0 to 26.8 m/s in 6.2 s. What is the average acceleration of the car?
Nutka1998 [239]

Answer:

0 - 60 mph = 0 - 26.8 m/s = 0 - 96.6 km/h; 0 - 100 km/h = 0 - 27.8 m/s = 0 - 62.1 mph.
