Answer:

250 N

Explanation:

Assuming both girls are pushing in the same direction

Given

Total amount of force,they exert on box= 500 N

let <u>force exerted by Macy</u> = F_{M}

     <u>force exerted by Sam</u>= F_{S}

⇒ F_{M}+F_{S}=500 N

But also given <u>both girls push with equal amount of force</u>

⇒ F_{M}=F_{N}

Therefore

F_{M}+ F_{M}=500 N

2\times F_{M}=500 N

F_{M}=250 N

⇒  F_{M}=250 N , F_{N}= 250 N

The water in the plumbing in a house is at a gauge pressure of 300,000 pa. What force does this cause on the top of the tank ins
liraira [26]

Answer:

60 000 N

Explanation:

1 pa = 1 N/m^2

you have 300 000 of these   = 300 000 N /m^2

    but only an area of .2 m^2

                    300 000 N / m^2  * .2 m^2 = 60 000 N

The speed v of a sound wave traveling in a medium that has bulk modulus b and mass density ρ (mass divided by the volume) is v=b
PilotLPTM [1.2K]

As it is given that Bulk modulus  and density related to velocity of sound

v = \sqrt{\frac{B}{\rho}}

by rearranging the equation we can say

B = \rho * v^2

now we need to find the SI unit of Bulk modulus here

we can find it by plug in the units of density and speed here

B = \frac{kg}{m^3} * (\frac{m}{s})^2

so SI unit will be

B = \frac{kg}{m* s^2}

SO above is the SI unit of bulk Modulus
