A hollow plastic sphere is held below the surface of a freshwater lake by a cable anchored to the bottom of the lake. The sphere has a volume of 0.3m^3, and the tension in the cable is 855 N. Calculate the buoyant force exerted by the water on the sphere in N. Write your answer in whole number.
fluid. The cross-sectional areas of piston 1 and piston 2 are A1 and A2, respectively. A force F1 is exerted on piston 1. Rank the resultant force F2 on piston 2 that results from the combinations of F1, A1, and A2 given from greatest to smallest. If any of the combinations yield the same force, give them the same ranking. (Use only ">" or "=" symbols. Do not include any parentheses around the letters or symbols.) F1 = 5.0 N; A1 = 0.3 m2; and A2 = 0.6 m2 F1 = 2.5 N; A1 = 0.3 m2; and A2 = 0.15 m2 F1 = 2.5 N; A1 = 0.6 m2; and A2 = 1.2 m2 F1 = 5.0 N; A1 = 0.15 m2; and A2 = 0.6 m2 F1 = 5.0 N; A1 = 0.15 m2; and A2 = 0.3 m2 F1 = 2.5 N; A1 = 0.6 m2; and A2 = 0.3 m2

A scientist is calculating the density of an ore sample. The scien- tist measures that the ore sample weighs 22.4 N in air. When the sample is suspended by a thin light cord and totally immersed in water, the tension in the cord is 14.2 N. What is the density of the ore sample that the scientist calculates. You can assume that any buoyant force from air is negligible.

A liquid-filled tube called a manometer can be used to measure the pressure inside a container by comparing it to the atmospheric pressure and measuring the height of the liquid. Such a device (filled with water) is shown in the figure, measuring the pressure inside a balloon filled with an unknown gas. The water level on the side of the manometer which is open to the air is 22.3 cm higher than on the side connected to the balloon. a) Find the gauge pressure in the balloon, in units of Pa. Recall the density of water is 1000 kg/m3. b) Find the absolute pressure in the balloon, in units of Pa.

Question 4 Fluids: A stone has an apparent weight of 803 N when submerged in fresh water (with a density of 998 kg/m^3), which then weighs 1385 N in air. What is the volume of the stone? Answer in m^3. Show solutions for this question Add your answer
Two identical containers are open at the top and are connected at the bottom via a tube of negligible volume and a valve that is closed. Both containers are filled initially to the same height of 1.00 m, one with water, the other with mercury, as the drawing indicates. The valve is then opened. Water and mercury are immiscible. Determine the fluid level in the left container when equilibrium is reestablished. Number Units Water Valve Mercury 100 m 4
