Answer:

15000N/m²

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Weight  = 450N

Total area  = 0.03m²  

Unknown:

Pressure under her feet  = ?

Solution:

Pressure is the force per unit area on a body.

  Pressure  = \frac{Force }{Area}  

Weight is a type of force;

    Pressure  = \frac{450}{0.03}   = 15000N/m²

A woman drives 200 miles west and then turns south and drives 375 miles. Her trip takes her 11.75 hrs. What is the woman's avera
FromTheMoon [43]

Answer:

The woman's average velocity during the trip is 36.2 miles/hour.

Explanation:

Velocity can be define as the displacement of an object per time. It is a vector quantity, and measured in m/s.

i.e velocity = \frac{displacement}{time}

From the given question,

Displacement = \sqrt{200^{2} + 375^{2}  }

                       = \sqrt{40000+140625}

                       = \sqrt{180625}

                       = 425

The displacement of woman is 425 miles.

velocity = \frac{425}{11.75}

             = 36.1702 miles/hour

The woman's average velocity during the trip is 36.2 miles/hour.

A manometer is used to measure the air pressure in a tank. the fluid used has a specific gravity of 1.25, and the differential h
BartSMP [9]
Specific Gravity of the fluid = 1.25 
Height h = 28 in
 Atmospheric Pressure = 12.7 psia
 Density of water = 62.4 lbm/ft^3 at 32F
 Density of the Fluid = Specific Gravity of the fluid x Density of water = 1.25 x 62.4
 Density of the Fluid p = 78 lbm/ft^3
 Difference in pressure as we got the differential height, dP = p x g x h  dP = (78 lbm/ft^3) x (32.174 ft/s^2) x (28/12 ft) [ 1 lbf / 32.174 ft/s^2] [1 ft^2 /
144in^2]
 Difference in pressure = 1.26 psia
 (a) Pressure in the arm that is at Higher 
 P = Atmospheric Pressure - Pressure difference = 12.7 - 1.26 = 11.44 psia
 (b) Pressure in the tank that is at Lower
 P = Atmospheric Pressure + Pressure difference = 12.7 + 1.26 = 13.96psia
