A sea exhibit at an aquarium is 24 meters long and 11 meters deep with a glass wall. It is open to the air at the very top. i. What is the total pressure at the top of the tank (including atmospheric pressure)? ii. What is the total pressure at the bottom of the tank (including atmospheric pressure)? iii. The other side of the glass wall is at atmospheric pressure. What is the total net force on the wall? (hint: the pressure changes linearly as a function of depth, so you can use the average pressure to find the force)

3. Now you will design a pressure receptor. First, draw a circle on a piece of paper and then draw two or three lines from the center to beyond the perimeter of the circle. Imagine that the circle represents a balloon and the lines are threads, which are attached to the surface of the balloon. How would blowing into the balloon, to increase the pressure of the air inside, affect: a. The size of the balloon? b. The threads attached to the surface of the balloon? c. Imagine that the threads are the terminals and axons of sensory neurons. If the terminals are sensitive to stretch, what will happen to the frequency of the action potentials in the axons as the pressure inside the balloon is changed?

What is the cause of air pressure? Why does the pressure a fluid exerts on the walls of its container decrease when the fluid starts to flow through the container (e.g. a piece of tubing)? Why is it impossible to pull a fluid? What does it mean to "entrain a fluid" into a flow? When the gauge on a cylinder of gas reads zero, is the cylinder actually empty? Explain.

The same fluid (density unknown) fills three depressions on an alien planet. Depression #1 is a small pond. Depression #2 is a large lake. Depression #3 is a very large ocean. All of these depressions have the same depth. Gravity g is the same at all three locations. However the value of gravity is unknown. How do the gauge pressures at the bottoms of the three depressions compare? A. P3 > P2 > P1 B. They are the same C. P1 > P2 > P3 D. Can't tell without knowing the dimensions of the depressions.
