    1 The diagram shows a submarine. The submarine is fully submerged in the sea.

    3
    The density of sea water is 1020 kg / m .

    The atmospheric pressure is 100 kPa and the total pressure on the top surface of the submarine
    is 500 kPa.

    Calculate the depth of the top surface of the submarine below the surface of the sea.

    depth = .............................................. [3]

    2 The diagram shows a mercury barometer. The tube containing the mercury is vertical.

    The height h indicates a value of the atmospheric pressure.

    (a) On a particular day the atmospheric pressure is 1.02 × 10 Pa. The density of mercury is
    3
    13 600 kg / m .

    Calculate the value of h indicated by the barometer.

    h = .............................................. [2]

    (b) The tube containing mercury is now tilted so that it makes an angle of 10° with the vertical.
    After tilting, there continues to be a space above the mercury in the tube.

    State and explain whether the vertical height of mercury in the tube is smaller, the same, or
    greater than the value calculated in (a).

    3 The diagram shows a mercury barometer. The tube containing the mercury is vertical.

    The height h indicates a value of the atmospheric pressure.

    Another mercury barometer in the same room at the same time shows a lower value of h than the
    barometer in the diagram.

    Suggest and explain a reason for the lower value.

    4 The figure shows an oil can containing only air at atmospheric pressure.

    can

    5
    Atmospheric pressure is 1.0 × 10 Pa.

    The pressure of the air in the can is reduced by means of a pump. The can collapses when the
    pressure of the air in the can falls to 6000 Pa.
    2
    The surface area of face X of the can is 0.12 m .

    Calculate the resultant force on face X when the can collapses.

    force = ....................................................... [3]

    6 The diagram shows a tall can containing water.

    The can has three identical holes 1, 2 and 3 on one side, one above the other in a vertical line, as
    shown in the diagram.

    Water is shown flowing out of hole 2 and hole 3.

    (a) State how the pressure of the water at hole 2 compares with the pressure of the water at
    hole 3.

    ........................................................................................................................................... [1]

    (b) Draw on the diagram to show the stream of water flowing from hole 1. [1]
