- (Oceanography) The pressure, P, exerted on an underwater object can be determined by this formula: P=gh is the density of water, which is 1.94slug/ft3 . g is the acceleration caused by Earth’s gravity, which is 32.2ft/sec2. h is the object’s depth in the water in feet. a. Determine the units of P by calculating the units resulting from the right side of the formula. Check that your answer corresponds to the units for pressure listed in Table 1.1. b. Determine the pressure on a submarine operating at a depth of 2500 feet.arrow_forward(Automotive) a. An automobile engine’s performance can be determined by monitoring its rotations per minute (rpm). Determine the conversion factors that can be used to convert rpm to frequency in hertz (Hz), given that 1rotation=1cycle,1minute=60seconds,and1Hz=1cycle/sec. b. Using the conversion factors you determined in Exercise 7a, convert 2000 rpm into hertz.arrow_forward1. Supposed a ball is thrown straight up in the air with an initial velocity of 50 feet per second and an initial height of 5 feet. How high will the ball be after 3 seconds? Note: The height after t seconds is given by the expression - 16t+vot+ho, where ve is the initial velocity and he is the initial height.arrow_forward
