Answer:

a) P =392.4[Pa]; b) F = 706.32[N]

Explanation:

With the input data of the problem we can calculate the area of the tank base

L = length = 10[m]

W = width = 18[cm] = 0.18[m]

A = W * L = 0.18*10

A = 1.8[m^2]

a)

Pressure can be calculated by knowing the density of the water and the height of the water column within the tank which is equal to h:

P = density * g *h

where:

density = 1000[kg/m^3]

g = gravity = 9.81[m/s^2]

h = heigth = 4[cm] = 0.04[m]

P = 1000*9.81*0.04

P = 392.4[Pa]

The force can be easily calculated knowing the relationship between pressure and force:

P = F/A

F = P*A

F = 392.4*1.8

F = 706.32[N]

Why are you able to make someone on a swing have very large swings by only exerting very small forces on them?
Allisa [31]
Because almost all of the force is done by the weight of the person and the mechanism of the swing itself, when you push someone you only give them an increase in velocity, the acceleration comes from the weight at first and then from gravity when the person is coming down, which is why we bend our legs when coming down

How can the direction of a tensional force be changed without diminishing the force?
RSB [31]

Given what we know, we can confirm that the tensional force of a system can in theory be changed without diminishing its force through the use of an ideal pulley.

<h3>What is an ideal pulley?</h3>
  • A pulley is a small wheel through which a string or chain is run.
  • These are used in order to change the direction of a force.
  • An ideal pulley would be one in which there is no friction and the pulley itself would have no mass.
  • Therefore, the force would be able to change directions without giving part of its force to the pulley system.

Therefore, we can confirm that the only known way to change the direction of a force without diminishing its value would be through the use of a frictionless and massless pulley system otherwise known as an ideal pulley.

What is folk remedies
mario62 [17]

A "folk" remedy is something you choose to eat, take, or do,
in order to correct some health issue, because your friend,
your grandmother, your religion, your shaman, your astrologer,
or your medicine man says that it's the right thing to do. 

It may or may not be effective, and it may or may not even be
safe.  What distinguishes it from mainstream medicine is that
its practices are based on hearsay, and have not been subjected
to scientific methods of investigation and evaluation.
