Use this exhibit to answer the following question(s).
Refer to . A hand exerts an upward force of 6.70 N on the 1.70-kg mass. The magnitudes of the tensions are
A.
= 15.8 N; 
= 10.0 N.B.
= 15.8 N; = 16.7 N.C.
= 22.5 N; = 10.0 N.D.
= 22.5 N; = 16.7 N.E.
= 32.5 N; = 10.0 N.Pressure: One of the dangers of tornados and hurricanes is the rapid drop in air pressure that is associated with such storms. Assume that the air pressure inside of a sealed house is 1.02 atm when a hurricane hits. The hurricane rapidly decreases the external air pressure to 0.910 atm. What net outward force is exerted on a square window of the house that is 2.03 m on each side? (1.00 atm = 1.01 × 105 Pa)
A. 4.59 × 104 N B. 5.19 × 104 N C. 4.82 × 105 N D. 5.42 × 105 N
When a 125-kg piece of equipment is hung from a steel wire of length 75 cm, it stretches the wire by 4.00 mm. If instead the wire had a length of 150 cm, but all else were the same, by what distance would the same equipment stretch the wire?
A) 4.00 mm B) 8.00 mm C) 2.00 mm D) 16.0 mm E) 1.00 mm
