(a) (i) Define relative density.
(ii) List three characteristics of pressure in a liquid.
(b) The horizontal door of a submarine at a depth of 500m has an area of 0.4m\(^{2}\). Calculate the force exerted by the sea water on the door at this depth. [Relative density of sea water = 1.03 ] [Atmospheric pressure =- 1.01 x 10\(^{5}\) Nm\(^{-2}\)] [Density of pure water = 1000kgm\(^{-3}\)] [g = 10ms\(^{-2}\)]
(c) (i) List three effects of heat other than expansion.
(ii) Explain saturated vapour pressure.
(iii) A heating coil of resistance 20 \(\Omega\) connected to a 220 V source is used to boil a certain quantity of water in a container of heat capacity 100 J kg\(^{-1}\) for 2 minutes. If the initial temperature of the water is 40° C, calculate the mass of the water in the container. [specific heat capacity of water = 4.2 x 10\(^3\) Jkg\(^{-1}\) K\(^{-1}\)] [assume boiling point of water = 100°C]
