(a). At what depth in the ocean is the gauge pressure acting on a hatch that has an area of 5.5 m2 equal to 490,000 Pa? (Take g = 9.80 m/s2 and density of sea water to be 1020 kg/m3) (1.5 points) (b). What is the force on the hatch area due to only the gauge pressure? (1.5 points) (c). A hydraulic lift in a garage has two pistons: a small one with a cross-sectional area of 4.00 cm2 and large one with a cross-sectional area 250 cm2. If this lift is designed to raise a 3500 kg car, what minimum force must be applied to the small piston and what is the pressure of the hydraulic lift? (3.0 points)

For each statement below, determine whether each condition will promote microtubule polymerization or depolymerization. The addition of a drug that prevents GDP-tubulin from dissociating from the polymer will promote microtubule [1]. The addition of a drug that inhibits GTP hydrolysis in subunits incorporated into the polymer will promote microtubule [2]. The addition of a drug that caps the minus end of the microtubule and prevents subunit exchange at the minus end will promote microtubule [3]. The addition of a drug that promotes GTP hydrolysis in the microtubule will promote microtubule [4].
