Check Your Understanding If the normal force acting on each face of a cubical 1.0m3 piece of steel is changed by 1.0107 N. find the resulting change in the volume of the piece of steel.
A sump pump (used to drain water from be basement of houses built below the water table) is draining a flooded basement at rate of 0.750 L/S, with an output pressure of 3.00105N/m2 . (a) The water enters a hose with a 3.00-cm inside diameter and rises 2.50 m above the pump. What is its pressure at this point? (b) The hose goes over the foundation wall, losing 0.500 m in height and widens to 4.00 cm in diameter. What is the pressure now? You may neglect frictional losses both parts of the problem.
The left ventricle of a resting adult's heart pumps blood at a flow rate of 83.0 cm3/s , increasing its pressure by 110 mm Hg, its speed from zero to 30.0 cm/s, and its height by 5.00 cm. (All cumbers are averaged over the entire heartbeat) Calculate the total power output of left ventricle. Note that most of the power is used to increase blood pressure.
Scurrilous con artists have been known to represent gold-plated tungsten ingots as pure gold and sell them at prices much below gold value but high above the cost of tungsten. With what accuracy must you be able to measure the mass of such an ingot in and out of water to tell that it is almost pure tungsten rather than pure gold?
You can squirt water from a garden hose a considerably greater distance by partially covering the opening with your thumb. Explain this works.
A host pours the remnants of several of wine into a jug a party. The host then inserts a cork with a 2.00-cm diameter into the bottle, placing it in direct contact with the wine. The host is amazed when the host pounds the cork into place and the bottom of the jug (with a 14.0-cm diameter) breaks away. Calculate the extra force exerted against the bottom if he pounded the cork with a 120-N force.
Logs sometimes float vertically a lake because one end has become water-logged and denser than the other. What is the average density of a uniform-diameter log that floats with 20.0% of its length above water?
A rock with a mass of 540 g in air is found to have an apparent mass of 342 g when submerged in water. (a) What mass of water is displaced? (b) What is the volume of the rock? (c) What is its average density? Is this consistent with the value for granite?
A container of water has a cross-sectional area of A=0.1m2 . A piston sits top of the water (see be following figure). There is a spout located 0.15 m from the bottom of tank, open to the atmosphere, and a stream of water exits the spout. The cross sectional area of the spat is As=7.0104m2 . (a) What is the velocity of the water as it leaves the spout? (b) If the opening of the spout is located 1.5 m above the grand, how far from be pout does water hit the floor? Ignore friction and dissipative forces.
Bird bones have air pockets to reduce their weight—this also gives them an average density significantly less than that of the bones of other animals. Suppose an ornithologist weighs a bird bone air and in water and finds its mass is 45.0 g ad its apparent mass when submerged is 3.60 g (assume the bone is watertight.)(a) What mass of is displaced? (b) What is the volume of the bone? (c) What is its average density?
Water pressure inside a hose nozzle can be less than atmospheric pressure due to the Bernoulli effect. Explain in terms of energy how the water can emerge from the nozzle against the opposing atmospheric pressure.
In an immersion measurement of a woman's density, she is found to have a mass of 62.0 kg in air an apparent mass of 0.0850 kg completely submerged with lungs empty. (a) What of water does she displace? (b) What is her volume? (c) Calculate her density. (d) If her lung capacity is 1.7S L, is she able to that without treading water with her lungs filled air?
