Answer:

3.33 m

Explanation:

Pressure is the distributed force applied to the surface of an object per unit area. The force is applied perpendicular to the surface of the object. The SI unit of pressure is N/m² or Pa.

Hydrostatic pressure is the pressure that a fluid exerts at a point due to the force of gravity.

The relationship between  pressure on the bottom of the container,  atmospheric pressure and the pressure due to the depth of the fluid is given by:

P_{bottom}-P_{atm}=P_{depth}\\\\where\ P_{bottom}=pressure\ at\ the \ fluid\ bottom,\ P_{atm}=atmospheric\ pressure\\P_{depth}=pressure\ due\ to\ fluid\ depth=\rho gh. \ Hence:\\\\P_{bottom}-P_{atm}=\rho gh\\\\Given \ that\ P_{bottom}=115\ kPa=115*10^3\ Pa, let\ us\ assume\ P_{atm}=101\ kPa=101*10^3\ Pa,\rho=420\ kg/m^3,g=acceleration\ due\ to \ gravity=10\ m/s^2.\\\\Therefore:\\\\115*10^3-101*10^3=420*10*h\\\\14*10^3=4200h\\\\h=3.33\ m\\\\

A desk was moved 12 m using 280 j of work. how much force was used to move the desk?
Oksana_A [137]
Let F =  required force, N

Given:
d = 12 m, distance
W = 280 J, work done

By definition,
W = F*d,
therefore
(F N)*(12 m) = (280 J)
F = 280/12 = 23.33 N

Answer: The force is 23.3 N (nearest tenth)

The mass of the boy is 35 kilograms. What is the force of friction that slowed him down?
pychu [463]

Answer:

Newton's F=ma, which means the force (F) acting on an object is equal to the mass (m) of an object times its acceleration (a)

Distance from any point on a wave to an identical point on the next wave?
lesantik [10]
It's called the "Wavelength". It corresponds to <span>the distance from any point on a wave to an identical point on the next wave and could also be from crest to crest or trough to trough.

Hope this helps !
