Transcribed Image Text:A large aquarium of height 4 m is filled with fresh water to a depth of D = 2.10 m. One wall of the aquarium consists of thick plastic with
horizontal length w = 7.40 m. By how much does the total force on that wall increase if the aquarium is next filled to a depth of D = 3.80
m? (Note: use g = 9.81 m/s² and p = 998 kg/m³.)

What is the pressure of the box on the floor?arrow_forwardThe average body density of a human is 1030 kg/m3, yet we typically float in seawater when we fill our lungs with air and sink when we exhale. Therefore, our effective density is similar to that of seawater, 1010 kg/m3. If the typical total volume (body density + lung capacity) of a human is 0.25 m3, what volume is due to body mass and what volume is due to lung capacity (you can assume the density of air is rair = 1.2 kg/m3)arrow_forwardPart A: The human body typically contains 4.9 L of blood of density 1060 kg/m^3 . How many kilograms of blood are in the body? Part B: The average blood pressure is 1.30×104 Pa at the heart. What average force does the blood exert on each square centimeter of the heart? Part C: Red blood cells have a specific gravity of 5.0 and a diameter of about 7.5 μm. If they are spherical in shape (which is not quite true), what is the mass of such a cell?arrow_forward
- A lost shipping container is found resting on the ocean floor and completely submerged. The container is 6.3 m long, 2.9 m wide, and 2.9 m high. Salvage experts attach a spherical balloon to the top of the container and inflate it with air pumped down from the surface. When the balloon's radius is 1.6 m, the shipping container just begins to rise towards the surface. What is the mass of the container? Ignore the mass of the balloon and the air within it. Do not neglect the buoyant force exerted on the shipping container by the water. The density of seawater is 1025 kg/m³.
