Answer:
1.343 atm
Explanation:
The mass of water above 1 square meter of swimming pool bottom is ...
M = (3.5 m)·(1000 kg/m^3) = 3500 kg/m^2
Then the force exerted by the water on the pool bottom is ...
F = Mg = (3500 kg/m^2)(9.8 m/s^2) = 34300 N/m^2 = 34300 Pa
Compared with atmospheric pressure, this is ...
34,300/10^5 = 0.343 . . . . atmospheres
Added to the atmospheric pressure on the water's surface, the total pressure on the pool bottom is 1.343 atmospheres.
The guy above looks correct
Answer:
The correct answer is
d. heating evaporative cooling and mineral transport
Explanation:
Plants transpire to expel excess heat energy by a process known as evaporative cooling. As the water involved in transpiration evaporates, heat energy is transferred from the plant system into the surrounding environment cooling down the plant.
During transpiration, the stomata of the plant are open allowing the outward flow of the evaporated water and also the open stomata enable the plant to absorb carbon dioxide (CO2) from the atmosphere. The carbon dioxide is required in photosynthesis for the formation glucose while producing oxygen as well.
The water also transports nutrients dissolved in it as it is being transported to the leafs for evaporation. These nutrients are thus delivered tm all parts of the plant.
