Answer:
(a) The absolute pressure at the bottom of the freshwater lake is 395.3 kPa
(b) The force exerted by the water on the window is 36101.5 N
Explanation:
(a)
The absolute pressure is given by the formula
Where is the absolute pressure
is the atmospheric pressure
is the density
is the acceleration due to gravity (Take
)
h is the height
From the question
h = 30.0 m
= 1.00 × 10³ kg/m³ = 1000 kg/m³
= 101.3 kPa = 101300 Pa
Using the formula
P = 101300 + (1000×9.8×30.0)
P = 101300 + 294000
P =395300 Pa
P = 395.3 kPa
Hence, the absolute pressure at the bottom of the freshwater lake is 395.3 kPa
(b)
For the force exerted
From
P = F/A
Where P is the pressure
F is the force
and A is the area
Then, F = P × A
Here, The area will be area of the window of the underwater vehicle.
Diameter of the circular window = 34.1 cm = 0.341 m
From Area = πD²/4
Then, A = π×(0.341)²/4 = 0.0913269 m²
Now,
From F = P × A
F = 395300 × 0.0913269
F = 36101.5 N
Hence, the force exerted by the water on the window is 36101.5 N
Answer:
It's 1.0000042 times longer in summer than in winter. It represents a 1.6 centimeters difference between seasons.
Explanation:
The linear coefficient of thermal expansion for steel is about . From the equation of linear thermal expansion, we have:
Taking the winter day as the initial, and the summer day as the final, we can take the relationship between them:
It means that the bridge is 1.0000042 times longer in summer than in winter. If we multiply it by the length of the bridge, we obtain that the difference is of about 1.6 centimeters between the two seasons.
