How did this change the forces on the beaker/water system? The mass pushed down on the beaker/water with a new force and the normal force increased to compensate. The tension in the string acted on the beaker/water system after the mass is submerged. O An upward force acted on the water due to the mass and the normal force decreased to compensate. O No changes occurred. The forces on the beaker/water system were still just the normal force and the weight.arrow_forwardThe liquid of density p in a horizontal pipe with a cross-section being a square with the side a before a constriction is at pressure P1 and flowing with the speed v1.
