Marcie observes a boat floating on water and tries to explain to her mother why the boat is not moving. Which of the following explanations is the best to use? A. The force of gravity acting on the boat is the same as the force of the water pushing up. This means the forces acting on the boat are balanced. B. The force of gravity acting on the boat is the same as the force of the water pushing up. C. This means the forces are unbalanced. The force of the water pushing up on the boat is greater than the force of gravity pulling the boat down. This means the forces acting on the boat are balanced. D. The force of the water pushing up on the boat and the force of the boat pushing itself up allows the boat to float. The two forces are balanced.

Apump is used to circulate hot water in a home heating system. water enters the well-insulated pump operating at steady state at a rate of 0.42 gal/min. the inlet pressure and temperature are 14.7 lbf/in.2, and 180°f, respectively; at the exit the pressure is 60 lbf/in.2 the pump requires 1/15 hp of power input. water can be modeled as an incompressible substance with constant density of 60.58 lb/ft3 and constant specific heat of 1 btu/lb or. neglecting kinetic and potential energy effects, determine the temperature change, in °r, as the water flows through the pump.
