Answer:

P = 10 kPa

Explanation:

Given that,

The mass of a small table, m = 4 kg

The area of each leg = 0.001 m²

We need to find the pressure exerted by the table on the floor. Pressure is equal to the force per unit area. So

P=\dfrac{mg}{4\times A}\\\\P=\dfrac{4\times 10}{4\times 0.001}\\P=10000\ Pa\\\\or\\\\P=10\ kPa

So, the required pressure is 10 kPa.

At very high pressures, gases become ____________ and will eventually _______________.
stiks02 [169]

Answer:

B) more dense; change to a liquid or solid

Explanation:

When the pressure of a gas is increased, the average distance between the molecules decreases. In fact, if we assume that the temperature of the gas is kept constant, then we have

pV=const.

which means that the product between pressure and volume is constant: so, if the pressure increases, the volume decreases, and therefore the density of the gas increases (because density is inversely proportional to the volume, d=\frac{m}{V})

Moreover, at very high pressure, the gas can turns into a liquid and eventually into a solid: in fact, as the average distance between the molecules decreases more and more, at some point they becomes so close to each other that the intermolecular forces start to be relevant, turning the gas into a liquid.

A cubical wooden box floating on water rises 1cm when 400 gm of stone is
Ksivusya [100]

Answer:

Explanation:

I'm not  sure you can do this without just a bit more information. I can tell you what the mass of the water is when the rocks are removed. When we know that, we know the volume of the water that was displaced. whether or not this is enough information to determine the volume of the box, I'm not sure.

400 grams raises the box 1 cm.

The density of water = 1 gm / cm^3

400 grams of water = 400 mL or 400 cm^3

The volume of the displaced water = 400 cm^3

The volume a slice from the square prism is B*h

B = 400 cm^2

h = 1 cm

If the base is 400 cm^2 then each side is

s^2 = 400

sqrt(s^2)= sqrt(400)

s = 20

The volume of the box is 20^3 = 8000 cm^3
