(II) A proposed space station consists of a circular tube that will rotate about its center (like a tubular bicycle tire), Fig. 5–39. The circle formed by the tube has a diameter of 1.1 km. What must be the rota- 1.1 km tion speed (revolutions per day) if an effect nearly equal to gravity at the surface of the Earth (say, 0.90 g) is to be felt? FIGURE 5-39 Problem 13.

The U-tube in Fig. 2-18, of uniform cross section I cm?, contains mercury to the depth shown. The barometric pressure is 150 Torre. The left side of the tube is n's:' closed at the top, and the right side is connected to a good vacuum pump. (a) How far does the mercury level fall in the left side and (b) what is the final pressure of the trapped air? The temperature remains constant.. 50 çm 50 cm Figure 2-18

Suppose a cars standard tires are replaced with tires 1.30 times larger in diameter. (i) Will the cars speedometer reading be (a) 1.69 times too high, (b) 1.30 times too high, (c) accurate, (d) 1.30 times too low, (e) 1.69 times too low, or (f) inaccurate by an unpredictable factor? (ii) Will the cars fuel economy in miles per gallon or km/L appear to be (a) 1.69 times better, (b) 1.30 times belter, (c) essentially the same, (d) 1.30 times worse, or (e) 1.69 times worse?
Review, (a) H it has enough kinetic energy, a molecule at the surface of the Earth can escape the Earths gravitation in the sense that it can continue to move away from the Earth forever as discussed in Section 13.6. Using the principle of conservation of energy, show that the minimum kinetic energy needed for escape is m0gRE where m0 is the mass of the molecule, g is the free-fall acceleration at the surface, and RE is the radius of the Earth, (b) Calculate the temperature for which the minimum escape kinetic energy is ten times the average kinetic energy of an oxygen molecule.

> In this problem you will consider the balance of thermal energy radiated and absorbed by a person. Assume that the person is wearing only a skimpy bathing suit of negligible area. As a rough approximation, the area of a human body may be considered to be that of the sides of a cylinder of length L = 2.0 m and circumference C = 0.8 m. For the Stefan-Boltzmann constant use o= 5.67 x 10-8 W/m²/K4 Part C Now calculate Por, the thermal power absorbed by the person from the thermal radiation field in the room, which is assumed to be at Troom = 20°C. If you do not understand the role played by the emissivities of room and person, be sure to open the hint on that topic. Express the thermal power numerically, giving your answer to the nearest 10 W.

The settling rate of particulates in the air follows Stokes' law. If particulates of diameter of 10 nm emitted in the atmosphere are found to settle out after 2 days, how long would it take particulates of the same material with a diameter of 5 nm to settle out if they are emitted from the same source?
