Question:
Astronauts visiting a new planet find a lake filled with an unknown liquid. They have with them a plastic cube, 6.0 cm on each side, with a density of 840 kg/m3. First they weigh the cube with a spring scale, measuring a weight of 21 N. Then they float the cube in the lake and find that two-thirds of the cube is submerged.
At what depth in the lake will the pressure be twice the atmospheric pressure of 85 kPa?
Step by Step Answer:
Model Since the cube floats in the lake 23 submerged the cubes ...View the full answer

As we know, to break a coconut we have to apply 400 pounds of pressure to it. In pounds = 400psi In newton = 1779.29N Starting from the first person he will try to break the coconut with his hands. As we know humans can exert a force 292 newtons by their hands. So force by hand is approximately = 300 N Then the second and third one also try to break it by hand but they fail too.
