Pressure cookers have been around for more than 300 years, although their use has strongly declined in recent years (early models had a nasty habit of exploding). How much force (in N) must the latches holding the lid onto a pressure cooker be able to withstand if the circular lid is 27.0 cm in diameter and the gauge pressure inside is 3.00 atm? Neglect the weight of the lid. 11632.1 XN
A viewing window on the side of a large tank at a public aquarium measures 58 in. by 68 in. The average gauge pressure from the water is 3 psi. What is the total outward force on the window?lb
1. At a certain ocean depth, the pressure is 1.71x108 Pa. Calculate the change in volume of 1.00 m3 of seawater carried from the surface to this deepest point. The compressibility k of water is 45.8x10-11 Pa-1.
What is the pressure 24.0 m below the surface of a lake? The pressure at the surface is 12.6 m H2O and the density of water is 1000 kg/m^3. Use the conversion factor 101 325 kPa = 10.33 m H2O.
Dr. B uses his phone and the app phyphox to measure atmospheric pressure at different heights. At the first floor of the UMass W.E.B. DuBois Library he measures a pressure of 101300 Pa. He then takes the elevator to the roof of the library and measures a pressure of 100172 Pa. If the density of the air is 1.205kg/m33, what is the height of the library? a. 124 m b. 96 m c. 76 m d. 67 m e. 105 m
Density of air is 1.36 g/ltr. Express it in, a. g/cm³ b. kg m
A vacuum-style lift assist exerts a vertical force on an object by attachment of one or more suction cups to the top of that object. For a lift with four suction cups to provide at least 500 N of lifting force, what is the minimum vacuum pressure (mm Hg) allowable inside each 76-mm-diameter cup attached to the object? Pcup i mm Hg
Tire gauges for air pressure, as well as most other gauges used in an industrial environment take into account the pressure due to the atmosphere of earth. That's why your car gauge reads 0 before you put it on your tire to check your pressure. That is called gauge pressure. The real pressure within a tire or other object contains pressurized stuff would be a combination of what the gauge reads as well at the atmospheric pressure. If a gauge on a tire reads 40.16 psi, what is the real pressure in the tire in pascals. The atmospheric pressure is 1.01x10^5 Pa.
The atmospheric pressure above a swimming pool changes from 745 to 764 mm of mercury. The bottom of the pool is a 27.7 m x 28.1 m rectangle. By how much does the force on the bottom of the pool increase? Number IN Units
