Question

Hampus finds a bottle of oil in the pantry. Curious as he is, he wants to see if it is possible to determine the density of the oil. He pours water and oil into a U- tube as shown. He measures the height of the oil at 7.50 cm and the height of the water at 6.90 cm. a) What is the density of the oil? Hampus is so pleased that he has succeeded in calculating the density of the oil that he accidentally hits the bottle of oil so that it falls from the sink, which is 1.05 m high, onto the floor. b) Determine the speed of the bottle just before it hits the floor. The bottle contains 0.50 1 oil. You can neglect the weight of the bottle. If you did not succeed in task a), you can assume that there is water in the bottle. Luckily, the bottle that bounces on the floor stays. The bottle loses 80% of its kinetic energy on the bounce. c) How high does the bottle reach after the bounce? The diagrams below show the movement of the bottle up to the bounce. d) What kind of diagram are 1), 2) and 3)? Which units should be on the axes in the diagrams?
