A 40 cm of honey (denisty = 1.36 g/m3) in one arm of an open U-tube manometer is found to balance a certain column height of vegetable oil (density = 0.91 g/m3). What is the measure of the height of oil?
A 480 mm long thighbone (femur), which is the largest and longest bone in the human body, has a cross sectional area of 7.7 × 10–4 m2. A safety factor of 4 applies and the maximum compressional stress that a bone can withstand is 1.6 × 108 N/m2 before it breaks. Young’s Modulus (E ) of a bone at room temperature is 15 × 109 Pa. How much will it compress to support a weight of 1.2 × 105 N?

A bullet of mass 0.0395 kg is fired toward board with a thickness of 0.0295 m. Its speed is 355 m/s before making contact with the board and it passes through the board. The average force exerted on the bullet by the board has a magnitude of 732 N. What is the speed of the bullet, in m/s, after passing through the board? (The weight of the bullet is negligible relative to the force exerted by the board. Assume the force exerted by the board is constant.)

An airplane has wings, each with area 3.85 m2, designed so that air flows over the top of the wing at 248 m/s and underneath the wing at 226 m/s. Approximately what size wings would an aircraft need on Mars if its engine generates the same differences in speed as in the "Practice It" and the total mass of the craft is 300 kg? The density of air on the surface of Mars is approximately one percent Earth's density at sea level, and the acceleration of gravity on the surface of Mars is about 3.8 m/s2. ______________m2
