The mattress of a water bed has a length of 2.00 m, a width of 2.00 m and a depth of 30.0 cm. Find the weight of the water on the mattress and find the pressure exerted by the water on the floor when the bed is in its normal position. Assume that the entire lower part of the bed makes contact with the floor.
1.If the bed were replaced by another that has a
weight of 300 lbs and is supported by the four legs that have a
diameter of 2.00 cm. What pressure does the bed exert on the
surface?
a.5.00 x 105 Pa
b.4.5 x 105 Pa
c.6.0 x 104 Pa
d.2.7 x 105 Pa
2.The fluid presented in the exercise is a fluid:
a.Turbulent
b.Laminate
c.Incompressible
d.Viscous
