A boat floats because the upthrust equals the weight of the boat. Upthrust depends mainly on:
A fluid exerts pressure because its particles collide with surfaces; which direction is this pressure exerted?
A garage measures tyre pressure with a gauge showing 220 kPa. This is the gauge (above atmospheric) reading. The absolute pressure in the tyre (atmospheric ~101 kPa) is:
Which will increase hydrostatic pressure at a point in a tank: larger depth, higher density, or larger tank area?
A cubic block 0.20 m side floats with half its volume submerged. The block’s density is:
Why does pressure act in all directions at a point in a static fluid?
A diver at 10 m depth feels ear pain. This is due to:
Which statement describes Pascal’s principle?
A stone of volume 0.002 m3 is fully submerged in water (? = 1000 kg/m3). The buoyant force (upthrust) on the stone is approximately:
A fire piston compresses air rapidly and its temperature rises. Which effect increases inside the piston?
A manometer shows a higher column of liquid on the side open to air than the side connected to a closed container. This indicates:
