The NASA spacecraft Deep Space I was shut down on December 18, 2001, following a three-year journey to the asteroid Braille and the comet Borrelly. This spacecraft used a solar-powered ion engine to produce 0.064 ounces of thrust (force) by stripping electrons from neon atoms and accelerating the resulting ions to 70,000 mi/h. The thrust was only as much as the weight of a couple sheets of paper, but the engine operated continuously for 16,000 hours. As a result, the speed of the spacecraft increased by 7900 mi/h. What was the mass of Deep Space I?

Asubmarine has a "crush depth" (that is, the depth at which water pressure will crush the submarine) of 250 m. what is the approximate pressure (water plus atmospheric) at this depth? (recall that the density of seawater is 1025 kg/m3, g = 9.81 m/s2, and 1 kg/(ms2) = 1 pa = 9.8692 10-6 atm.) a. 34.8 atm b. 24.8 atm c. 25.8 atm d. 7.8 atm
