Answer:

The pressure at the top of the step is 129.303 kilopascals.

Explanation:

From Hydrostatics we find that the pressure difference between extremes of the water column is defined by the following formula, which is a particular case of the Bernoulli's Principle (v_{bottom}\approx v_{top}):

p_{bottom}-p_{top} = \rho\cdot g\cdot \Delta h (1)

p_{bottom}, p_{top} - Total pressures at the bottom and at the top, measured in pascals.

\rho - Density of the water, measured in kilograms per cubic meter.

\Delta h - Height difference of the step, measured in meters.

If we know that p_{bottom} = 132000\,Pa, \rho = 1000\,\frac{kg}{m^{3}}, g = 9.807\,\frac{m}{s^{2}} and \Delta h = 0.275\,m, then the pressure at the top of the step is:

p_{top} = p_{bottom}-\rho\cdot g\cdot \Delta h

p_{top} = 132000\,Pa-\left(1000\,\frac{kg}{m^{3}} \right)\cdot \left(9.807\,\frac{m}{s^{2}} \right)\cdot (0.275\,m)

p_{top} = 129303.075\,Pa

p_{top} = 129.303\,kPa

The pressure at the top of the step is 129.303 kilopascals.

Tcecarenko [31]

Answer:

you count the squares or messure it

Explanation:

you can raw equal squares about 1 cm wide if possible all equal and count the squares eg theres 10 squares (small hand) so that would be 10cm squared

When the spacecraft is at the halfway point, how does the strength of the gravitional force on the spaceprobe by Earth compre wi
mixer [17]

Solution :

When the spacecraft is at halfway point, the distance from the Earth as well as Mars are same. We have to account the masses of the planets. The gravitational force that is exerted by the Earth is greater because of its combined mass with the space probe.

The mass of Earth is greater than the mass of Mars. Therefore, the force of Earth is more than Mars.
