2. Gravitational acceleration on Earth is 9.8 m/s?, while on the Moon it is 1.6 m/s?. Scientists onEarth observe that when a wooden block is placed in a bucket of water, 60% of the block'svolume is submerged under water. Suppose the same experiment is repeated on the Moon, withthe same block and the same bucket of water. What fraction of the block's volume is submergedunder water on the Moon? Explain your answer and support it with calculations.

When any object such as the wooden block is submerged under water, there are two effective forces…

Bird bones have air pockets in them to reduce their weight—this also gives them an average density significantly less than that of the bones of other animals. Suppose an ornithologist weighs a bird bone in air and in water and finds its mass is 45.0 g and its apparent mass when submerged is 3.60 g (the bone is water light) a. What mass of water is displaced? b. What is the volume of the bone? c. What is its average density?

The same fluid (density unknown) fills three depressions on an alien planet. Depression #1 is a small pond. Depression #2 is a large lake. Depression #3 is a very large ocean. All of these depressions have the same depth. Gravity g is the same at all three locations. However the value of gravity is unknown. How do the gauge pressures at the bottoms of the three depressions compare? A. P3 > P2 > P1 B. They are the same C. P1 > P2 > P3 D. Can't tell without knowing the dimensions of the depressions.
5. DETAILS 777777.78 Pa MY NOTES A 70.00kg ballroom dancer wearing high heels accidentally steps on her partner's foot. If her entire weight was momentarily supported by the heel of her shoe, which has a surface area of 0.90 cm², what amount of pressure does this apply to her partner's foot? 762.22 Pa 76222.22 Pa 7622222.22 Pa ASK YOUR TEACHER Suppose she instead stepped on her partner's foot with her forefoot instead of her heel (i.e., larger surface area). Would the pressure on her partner's foot be greater, less than, or equal to if she stepped on her partner with her heel? The pressure from the forefoot would be greater than the pressure from her heel. The pressure from the forefoot would be equal to the pressure from her heel. The pressure from the forefoot would be less than the pressure from her heel.
