The pressure, p, of water (in pounds per square foot) at a depth of d feet below the surface is given by the formula p=15+15/33d. if a diver is 100 feet below surface, what is the pressure of the water on the diver?
a.15.0 pounds per square feet
b.38.63 pounds per square feet
c.1545.45 pounds per square feet
d.60.45 pounds per square feet

Four objects are being tested to see how they are affected by fluid friction. object w has a surface area of 4.5 cm2, object x has a surface area of 2.5 cm2, object y has a surface area of 6.2 cm2, and object z has a surface area of 3 cm2. which object would experience the most fluid friction?

Ahorizontal wire is tied to supports at each end and vibrates in its second-overtone standing wave. the tension in the wire is 5.00 n, and the node-to-node distance in the standing wave is 6.28 cm. (a) what is the length of the wire? (b) a point at an anti- node of the standing wave on the wire travels from its maximum upward displacement to its maximum downward displacement in 8.40 ms. what is the wire's mass?

Scout feels ill one day before school. her mother puts a thermometer in her mouth and the temperature begins to climb to 100°f. what is happening between the cooler thermometer and scout's body? a) scout's body is applying a force to the particles in the thermometer. b) kinetic energy is being transferred from her mouth to the thermometer. c) potential energy is being lost by the thermometer and gained by scout's body. d) the potential energy stored in foods is converted to mechanical energy to raise the mercury in the thermometer.
