you sure that the question is complete?
Answer:
28,400 N
Explanation:
Let's start by calculating the pressure that acts on the upper surface of the hatch. It is given by the sum of the atmospheric pressure and the pressure due to the columb of water, which is given by Stevin's law:

On the lower part of the hatch, there is a pressure equal to

So, the net pressure acting on the hatch is

which acts from above.
The area of the hatch is given by:

So, the force needed to open the hatch from the inside is equal to the pressure multiplied by the area of the hatch:

The total displacement is equal to the total distance. For the east or E direction, the distance is determined using the equation:
d = vt = (22 m/s)(12 s) = 264 m
For the west or W direction, we use the equations:
a = (v - v₀)/t
d = v₀t + 0.5at²
Because the object slows down, the acceleration is negative. So,
-1.2 m/s² = (0 m/s - 22 m/s)/t
t = 18.33 seconds
d = (22 m/s)(18.33 s) + 0.5(-1.2 m/s²)(18.33 s)²
d = 201.67 m
Thus,
Total Displacement = 264 m + 201.67 m = 465.67 or approximately 4.7×10² m.
The answer is C,<span> The sum of all forces acting on the object is zero. hope that helps!!</span>
B- the acceleration is greater for the more massive rock
