Explanation Description: Matter is anything that has certain mass and it occupies certain space. Matter exists in the three states as given below: Solid, Liquid, and Gas. Solid is a substance that has definite shape and fixed volume. Liquid is a substance that has certain volume and its shape depends on the container in which it contains. Gas is also a substance similar to the liquid. Gas has definite volume and its shape depends on the container in which it contains. The mass of the neutron is 1.675 × 10 − 27 kg and the mass of electron is 9.109 × 10 − 31 kg

A high-speed lifting mechanism supports an 881 kg object with a steel cable that is 22.0 m long and 4.00 cm^2 in cross-sectional area. Young's modulus for steel is 20.0 ⋅10^10 Pa. Determine the elongation of the cable.

Namor, from Wakanda Forever, sits on a throne at the bottom of the ocean in a city called Talocan (and Atlantis in the comics). Assuming he, including his gold headdress, has a density of 1085 kg/m3 and that Namor is surrounded by salt water with a density of 1027 kg/m3, what is Namor’s normal force while sitting underwater? Take Namor’s mass as 285. kg and solve as if he has a uniform density.

To get there they need to travel through an area of salt-water, which seems to also be a magical portal, before arriving in a dry area. Judging by the time Maui and Moana spend falling through the water, it seems they dive 3440. ft deep. Assume the portal is non-magical salt-water, with a density of 1027 kg/m^3. Given that the air pressure above the portal is 1.013 ⋅10^5 Pa, what is the pressure when they are 3440. ft deep? 1 m = 3.28 ft. Moana would have a surface area of 1.30 m2. How much force would be acting on her at the bottom of this portal?
