Answer:

  • <em><u>3.30 × 10⁶ kg</u></em>

Explanation:

The form of the pool may be approximated to a reactangular prism with height equal to the average depth of water.

<u>1) Dimensions:</u>

  • Length: 44.6 m
  • Wide: 27.6 m
  • Height: 8.80 ft

<u>2) Volume formula</u>

  • V = length × width × height

<u>3) Unit conversions</u>

Convert 8.80 ft to meters:

  • 1 ft = 0.3048 m ⇒ 1 = 0.3048 m/ft

  • 8.80 ft × 0.3048 m/ft = 2.68 m

<u>4) Volume calculation</u>

Substitute the numbers in the formula:

  • V = length × width × height = 44.6 m × 27.6 m × 2.68 m ≈ 3,298.97 m³ ≈ 3,300 m³ (it is rounded to three significant digits)

<u>5) Mass of water:</u>

  • Density = mass / volume ⇒ mass = density × mass
  • Density of water = 1,000 kg / m³
  • mass = 3,300 m³ × 1,000 kg / m³ = 3,300,000 kg

<em><u>6) Scientific notation</u></em>

Choose the correct number of significant figures:

  • Since the three given factors have 3 significant figures, the correct number of significant figures of the volume and the mass is 3.

The mass must be expressed as a power of ten. The mantissa contains only the significant digits, and the number before the decimal point can only have one digit 1 through 9.

  • 3,300,000 kg =  3.30 × 10⁶ kg

oksian1 [2.3K]
43 inHg = 43 inHg*2.54cm/in = 109.22cmHg * 10 mm/cm = 1092.2 mmHg


14.7 psi = 760 mmHg

1092.2mmHg * 14.7psi / 760 mmHg = 21.13 psi

Answer: option D. 21.13 psi
