Explanation / Answer

1)The pressure inside the bicycle tire is P = 1.2 *105 Pa The diameter of the circular piston is d = 0.035 m The area of the circular piston is A = *(d2/4) The force exerted by the child is F = P * A = P * * (d2/4) 2)The height below the surface of the ocean where Piratestreasure chest lies is h = 20.0 m The area of the rectangular top is A = 0.750 m * 0.425m The magnitude of the force that acts on the rectangular topis F = P * A where P is the pressure exerted on Pirates treasurechest or F = gh * A ----------(1) where = 1000 kg/m3 is the density of waterand g = 9.8 m/s2 Substituting the values in equation (1) we get the magnitudeof the force that acts on the rectangular top. Substituting the values in equation (1) we get the magnitudeof the force that acts on the rectangular top.
