The density of water at 0°C is very nearly 1000 kg/m3 (it is actually 999.84 kg/m3), whereas the density of ice at 0°C is 917 kg/m3. The bulk modulus of ice is 2.20 × 109 Pa.
a. Calculate the pressure, in pascals, necessary to keep freezing water from expanding, neglecting the effect such a large pressure would have on the freezing point. (This problem gives you only an indication of how large the forces associated with freezing water might be.)

Otto von Guericke, inventor of the air pump, evacuated a sphere made of two brass hemispheres (Fig. P9.89). Two teams of eight horses each could pull the hemispheres apart only on some trials and then with greatest difficulty, with the resulting sound likened to a cannon firing. Find the force F required to pull the thin-walled evacuated hemispheres apart in terms of R, the radius of the hemispheres, P the pressure inside the hemispheres, and atmospheric pressure P0.
