Ideal Gas Law

Ideal gas law states that the product of pressure and volume of a gas directly varies with the product of the number of moles, the universal gas constant, and the temperature of the gas.

A garden hose is attached to a water faucet on one end and a spray nozzle on the other end. The water faucet is turned on, but the nozzle is turned off so that no water flows through the hose.

Unfiltered olive oil must flow at a minimum speed of 3.0 m/s to prevent settling of debris in a pipe. The oil leaves a pump at a pressure of 85 kPa through a pipe of radius 9.4 mm. It then enters a horizontal pipe at atmospheric pressure. Ignore the effects of viscosity. Part A: What is the speed of the oil as it leaves the pump if it flows at 3.0 m/s in the horizontal pipe? Part B: What is the radius of the horizontal pipe?

Blood pressure is measured when the blood is pumping (systolic) and when the heart is resting (diastolic). When pressure readings are given, the systolic is given first, and healthy blood pressure is around 120 over 80 mm Hg. Recall the density of mercury is 13.6 × 103 kg/m3. a. Suppose you have a blood pressure reading of 116 over 82 mm Hg. What is your systolic pressure, in newtons per meter squared? b. Suppose you have a blood pressure reading of 116 over 82 mm Hg.

You have entered a model rocket contest with your friend, Tiffany. You have been working on a pressurized rocket filled with nitrous oxide. Tiffany has determined the minimum atmospheric pressure at which the rocket fuel is stable. Based not hat value, and the equations given below, your task is to determine the optimum launch angle and initial velocity to maximize flight time. The goal is to re-use your rocket capsule, so you really want to avoid a fuel explosion. The atmospheric pressure varies with elevation according to the equation: P(h)= 14.7e−h/10. where p is the pressure in psi and h, is an elevation in miles above sea levels. The height (in feet) of a rocket launched at an angle α degrees with the horizontal and an initial velocity, vo in feet/second, t seconds after launch is given by the equation h(t)=-16t^2+vo*t*sin(α). 1) If Tiffany has determined that the minimum safe pressure is 11 pounds per square inch, at what altitude will the rocket explode?
