Answer:

True

Explanation:

Pascal's law says that pressure applied to an enclosed fluid will be transmitted without a change in magnitude to every point of the fluid and to the walls of the container. The pressure at any point in the fluid is equal in all directions.

How much pressure is applied to the ground

statuscvo [17]

Answer:

Pressure applied by the man= 285103.125 $Pa$ or 41.35 $lb/in^{2}$

Explanation:

Pressure is defined as the perpendicular force applied per unit area.

i.e. $Pressure=\frac{Force}{Area}$

Now, $Force= mg$

where, $m$ = mass of the body(man) = 93 kg

$g$ = acceleration due to gravity of Earth = 9.81 $m/{s^{2}}$

$Area$ covered is equal to the area of both stilts(a man generally stands on two feet)

therefore $Area=2(0.04)^{2}$ $m^{2}$

and putting in the values, we get,

$Pressure=\frac{93\times9.81}{2\times(0.04)^{2}}Nm^{-2}=285103.125Nm^{-2}$

Now we need to convert to our required units:

$1Nm^{-2}=1Pa\\1Pa=0.000145038lb/in^{2}$

(We can get the above result by individually converting kg to lb and meters to inches respectively)

Using the above relations we get,

$Pressure=285103.125Pa=0.000145038\times285103.125lb/in^{2}=41.35lb/in^{2}$

¿Cuál es la masa de un objeto cuya masa es de 400 J y energía cinética de 107J?

Pachacha [2.7K]

Answer:

Mass, m = 125 kg

Explanation:

Let us assume that the question says, "What is the mass of an object whose velocity is 400 m/s and the kinetic energy of 10⁷ J.

The kinetic energy of an object is :

$K=\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2\\\\m=\dfrac{2K}{v^2}\\\\m=\dfrac{2\times 10^7}{(400)^2}\\\\m=125\ kg$

So, the mass of the object is 125 kg.
