Question 1
(a) Pascal = Nm-2
(b) A = 800 x 2 x 10-3 = 1.6 m2
P = 500 = 312.5 Pa
1.6
(c) A sharp knife has a small surface
area. So it produce larger
pressure on the bread.
Question 2
(a) Pressure = force
area
(b) (i) balloon B
(ii) pressure on balloon B is
higher
(iii) the surface of the needle in
contact with the balloon is
smaller than the finger.
(iv) the smaller the surface
area, the larger the pressure
exerted on the balloon.
(v) Pressure increases
Question 3
(a) (i) The contact area between
the wheels in Diagram 6.2 is
larger
(ii) weight are equal
(b) Vehicle uses the wheels in
Diagram 6.2. Because it has
smaller pressure exerted on
the soft ground and will not
sink.
(c) Pressure

Question 5
(a) Depth / density / acceleration
due to gravity
(b)(i) PQ > P p
(b)(ii) PQ = h g
= 5 x 1000 x 10
= 50000 Pa
(c)(i) Different in pressure
(c)(ii) Water level at P is same as the
water level in the house water
tank // pressure is the same
between at P and inside the
tank.
No difference in pressure
(d)(i) Place the concrete tank at
higher place // on top of hill
Higher difference of pressure.
or
Use water pump
Increase the difference of
pressure.
(d)(ii)
Question 6
(a)(i) Magnitude : same magnitude of
atmospheric pressure
Directions : atmospheric
pressure and mercury are in the
same direction //
gas pressure direction against
the direction of mercury and
atmospheric pressure //
atmospheric pressure acts
downwards
(a)(ii) Phg + Patm ,// P gas
(a)(iii) Same / equal
(b) Gas pressure = atmospheric
Pressure + mercury pressure
(c)(i) Mercury level drops and at
same level in both columns
(c)(ii) Same pressure // atmospheric
Pressure

Question 8
(a) Pascals principle
(b) P = 5/2 = 2.5 Ncm-2
= 2.5 x 104 Nm-2
(c) Same pressure
(d) F2 = 2.5 x 5 = 12.5 N
(e) Liquid cannot be compressed
easily
3.5 ARCHIMEDES PRINCIPLE
Question 9
(a)(i) Archimedes principle
(a)(ii) upward: Buoyant force
Downward: weight of
Hydrometer
(b)(i) the length of hydrometer
submerged in oil is longer than
in water.
(b)(ii) Density of oil is less than water
(c)(i) Buoyant force = Wair - Wwater
= 0.25 0.22 = 0.03 N
(c)(ii) volume of object = volume of
water displaced
0.03 = 1000 x V x 10
V = 3 x 10-6 m3
Question 10
(a) Pacal
(b) Depth
(c) (i) Weight of water displaced =
buoyant force = Vg
= 1010 x 2.5 x 10
= 25,250 N
(ii) Tension + buoyant force
= weight of object
T = 125,000 25,250
= 99,750 N
Question 11
(a)
Mass per volume
(b) (i) Density sphere A less than
B
(ii) Weight A less than B
(iii) The weight of water
displaced by A less than B
(iv) Larger weight of sphere,
displaced bigger weight of
water
(v) Weight of water displaced =
up thrust //
When the weight of water
displaced increase, up thrust
increase
(c) Archimedes principle
(d) Submarine
Question 12
(a)(i) Same Volume
Net force zero
(a)(ii) Y < X < Z
(b)(i) Box Y floats and immersed
partially / box X immersed
fully and floats box Z sink
(b)(ii) Greater weight means
greater mass and greater
density.
The higher density object
needs more volume to
increase the buoyant force
to support the weight .
(c) Archimedes principle//
equilibrium of forces
Question 13
(a) Density is the mass per volume
(b)(i) Level of the boat is higher in
the sea than in the river. (the
part of boat submerged in the
sea is less than in the river)
(ii) Water displaced in the sea is
less than in the river.
(b)(iii) Density of sea water is higher
than river water.

Question 22:SBP 07
B is denser than A.
The weight of water displaced is
the same of the weight of the rod.
Weight of B is greater than weight
of A
B will displace more volume of
water
