Chapter 12, Problem 4EAP

An 18-cm-long bicycle crank arm, with a pedal at one end. is attached to a 20-cm-diameter sprocket, the toothed disk around which the chain moves. A cyclist riding this bike increases her pedaling rate from 60 rpm to 90 rpm in 10 s.

a. What is the tangential acceleration of the pedal?

b. What length of chain passes over the Lop of the sprocket during this interval?

Your blood pressure (usually given in units of "mm of Hg") is a result of the heart muscle pushing on your blood. The left side of the heart creates a pressure of 115 mm Hg by exerting a force directly on the blood over an effective area of 14.5 cm2. What force does it exert to accomplish this? (Give your answer as the number of Newtons and note that you will need to do some unit conversions.)

What is the absolute (total) pressure experienced by a diver at a depth of 17 meters below the surface of a lake? Assume that atmospheric pressure at the surface of the lake is 101,000 Pascals, g= 9.8 m/s2, and the density of the water in the lake is 997 kg/m3. Give your answer as the number of Pascals.

A particular solid cube has an edge of length 0.59 meters and is made of a material whose density is 3500 kg/m3. What is the mass of the cube? Give your answer as the number of kilograms.
