Answer:

Oceanic crust is about 6 km (4 miles) thick. It is composed of several layers, not including the overlying sediment. The topmost layer, about 500 metres (1,650 feet) thick, includes lavas made of basalt (that is, rock material consisting largely of plagioclase [feldspar] and pyroxene).

The water behind Grand Coulee Dam is 1000 m wide and 200 m deep. Find the hydrostatic force on the back of the dam. (Hint: the t

Vika [28.1K]

Answer:

The hydro static force on the back of the dam is $1.96\times10^{11}\ N$

Explanation:

Given that,

Width b= 1000 m

Depth d= 200 m

We need to calculate the average pressure

Using formula of average pressure

$P_{avg}=\rho\times g\times d_{avg}$

Put the value into the formula

$P_{avg}=1000\times9.8\times100$

$P_{avg}=980000\ Pa$

We need to calculate the hydro static force on the back of the dam

Using formula of force

$F = P_{avg}\times A$

Put the value into the formula

$F = 980000\times1000\times200$

$F=1.96\times10^{11}\ N$

Hence, The hydro static force on the back of the dam is $1.96\times10^{11}\ N$

A submarine is 58.8 m from a whale. The sub sends out a sonar ping to locate the whale. The speed of sound underwater is 1520 m/

MissTica

Answer:

0.08

Explanation:

this problem assume that both of whale and submarine are in rest position or in constant linier motion in same direction and same speed.

The sound will travel from Submarine to the whale and back again to submarine. so the time will be like this

t = 2d/v

t = 2*58.8/1520

t = 117.6/1520

t = 0.077368 s

t ≈ 0.08 s (less then 1 s)
