Pressure in a Liquid: A water tank is filled to a depth of 10 m, and the bottom of the tank is 20 m above ground. A water-filled hose that is 2.0 cm in diameter extends from the bottom of the tank to the ground, but no water is flowing in this hose. The water pressure at ground level in the hose is closest to which of the following values? The density of water is 1000 kg/m3.

A. 3.9 × 105 N/m2 B. 2.0 × 104 N/m2 C. 9.2 N/m2  D. The question cannot be answered because the cross sectional area of the tank is needed.

Two metal rods, one silver and the other copper, are both attached to a steam chamber as shown in the figure, with a temperature of 100°C, at one end, and an ice water bath, with a temperature of 0°C, at the other

The rods are 5.0 cm long and have a square cross-section, 2.0 cm on a side. When steady state has been reached, how much heat flows through the two rods in 1.0 min? The thermal conductivity of silver is 417 W/(m ? K), and that of copper is 395 W/(m ? K). No heat is exchanged between the rods and the surroundings, except at their ends. A) 20 kJ B) 39 kJ C) 47 kJ D) 49 kJ E) 11 kJ
