Q2. Example 14.02, (Halliday, 2014) A novice scuba diver practicing in a swimming pool takes enough air from his tank to fully expand his lungs before abandoning the tank at depth L and swimming to the sur- face, failing to exhale during his ascent. At the surface, the difference Ap between the external pressure on him and the air pressure in his lungs is 9.3 kPa. From what depth does he start? What potentially lethal danger does he face? given : DP = 9.3 kpá

Two identical cylindrical vessels with their bases at the same level each contain a liquid of density 1.01 g/cm³. The area of each base is 4.40 cm², but in one vessel the liquid height is 0.813 m and in the other it is 1.44 m. Find the work done by the gravitational force in equalizing the levels when the two vessels are connected. Number i Units
Pressure cookers use water at very high pressures to cook food very quickly. They have been around for more than 300 years, although their use has strongly declined in recent years (early models had a nasty habit of exploding). a. How much force, in newtons, must the latches holding the lid onto a pressure cooker be able to withstand if the circular lid is 27.5 cm in diameter and the gauge pressure inside is 0.95 atm? Neglect the weight of the lid.
An airplane is pressurized with air to 650 mmHg. a. If air is 21% oxygen, what is the partial pressure of oxygen on the plane? b. If the partial pressure of oxygen drops below 100 mmHg, passengers become drowsy. If this happens, oxygen masks are released. What is the total cabin pressure at which oxygen masks are dropped?
A frequently quoted rule of thumb in aircraft design is that wings should produce about 1000 N of lift per square meter of wing. (The fact that a wing has a top and bottom surface does not double its area.) a. At takeoff, an aircraft travels at 55 m/s, so that the air speed relative to the bottom of the wing is 55 m/s. Given the sea level density of air to be 1.29 kg/m3, how fast must it move over the upper surface to create the ideal lift? b. How fast must air move over the upper surface at a cruising speed of 249 m/s and at an altitude where air density is one-fourth that at sea level?

A frequently quoted rule of thumb in aircraft design is that wings should produce about 1000 N of lift per square meter of wing. (The fact that a wing has a top and bottom surface does not double its area.) a. At takeoff, an aircraft travels at 54 m/s, so that the air speed relative to the bottom of the wing is 54 m/s. Given the sea level density of air to be 1.29 kg/m^3, how fast must it move over the upper surface to create the ideal lift? b. How fast must air move over the upper surface at a cruising speed of 242 m/s and at an altitude where air density is one-fourth that at sea level?
Could you explain this point please? I don't know how to do it. An object starts from rest and after 10 seconds reaches a speed of 72 km/h. If the mass of the object is 2 tons. Calculate the pressure before it starts moving and after 10 seconds. The object is 3 m long and 150 cm wide.
Q5: The mass of a hydrogen molecule is 3.32 × 10–27/ kg. If 1023 hydrogen molecules strike, per second, a fixed wall of area 2 cm2 at an angle of 45° to the normal, and rebound elastically with a speed of 103 m s–1, then the pressure on the wall is nearly (a) 2.35 × 103 N m–2 (b) 4.70 × 103 N m–2 (c) 2.35 × 102 N m–2 (d) 4.70 × 102 N m–2
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.
Please answer the table below.
A hand-driven tire pump has a piston with a 2.00 cm diameter and a maximum stroke of 25.0 cm. a. How much work (in J) do you do in one stroke if the average gauge pressure is 2.40 ✕ 105 N/m2 (about 35 psi)? b. What average force (in N) do you exert on the piston, neglecting friction and gravity?
