54. Go When you push down on the handle of a bicycle pump, a piston
in the pump cylinder compresses the air inside the cylinder. When the
pressure in the cylinder is greater than the pressure inside the inner tube to
which the pump is attached, air begins to flow from the pump to the inner
tube. As a biker slowly begins to push down the handle of a bicycle pump,
the pressure inside the cylinder is 1.0 × 10° Pa, and the piston in the pump
is 0.55 m above the bottom of the cylinder. The pressure inside the inner
tube is 2.4 X 10° Pa. How far down must the biker push the handle before
air begins to flow from the pump to the inner tube? Ignore the air in the
hose connecting the pump to the inner tube, and assume that the tempera-
ture of the air in the pump cylinder does not change.
In 2085, your company wins a contract to deliver oxygen to several asteroid-based habitats from another asteroid with plenty of oxygen locked up in ice. Since there is no drag in space, the size of the oxygen containers is not an issue, and the most economical method turns out to be to enclose about 6 x 105 kilograms of cold but gaseous oxygen at about half atmospheric pressure in a Mylar sphere 100 m in diameter. To the sphere, you have strapped a small rocket engine. While the engine is firing, the engine presses into the sphere roughly 10 meters, like a finger pushing in on a balloon, as the sphere accelerates. The engine exerts a constant thrust until the sphere reaches its interasteroidal cruising speed of 100 m/s. The sphere travels about 5.0 km while the engine is firing. What fraction of the energy the rocket engine has given to the sphere ends up as internal energy in the gas just before the engine shuts off?
(14%) Problem 2: A cylinder of height H = 50.0 cm and cross sectional area A = 0.10 m² is open to the atmosphere (P = 101325 Pa) and in thermal
equilibrium with the surroundings air at 300.0 K. A 20.0 kg piston that seals tightly with the edges of the cylinder (with vacuum grease, so there is little friction
between the piston and cylinder) is placed on top and eventually settles at a height h. The cylinder is not insulated.
50% Part (a) How far, in mm, does the piston descend from H to h? Enter a positive value.
Ay = 9.500 mm ✓ Correct!
50% Part (b) A mass M is placed on the piston which comes to rest at a height of hi
=
48.5 cm from the bottom of the cylinder. Determine M in kg.

- Consider the piston cylinder apparatus shown in Figure P20.81. The bottom of the cylinder contains 2.00 kg of water at just under 100.0c. The cylinder has a radius of r = 7.50 cm. The piston of mass m = 3.00 kg sits on the surface of the water. An electric heater in the cylinder base transfers energy into the water at a rate of 100 W. Assume the cylinder is much taller than shown in the figure, so we dont need to be concerned about the piston reaching the top of the cylinder. (a) Once the water begins boiling, how fast is the piston rising? Model the steam as an ideal gas. (b) After the water has completely turned to steam and the heater continues to transfer energy to the steam at the same rate, how fast is the piston rising?arrow_forwardA liquid with a coefficient of volume expansion just fills a spherical shell of volume V (Fig. P16.53). The shell and the open capillary of area A projecting from the top of the sphere are made of a material with an average coefficient of linear expansion . The liquid is free to expand into the capillary. Assuming the temperature increases by T, find the distance h the liquid rises in the capillary.arrow_forwardIn the chapter on fluid mechanics, Bernoulli's equation for the flow of incompressible fluids was explained in terms of changes affecting a small volume dV of fluid. Such volumes are a fundamental idea in the study of the flow of compressible fluids such as gases as well. For the equations of hydrodynamics to apply, the mean free path must be much less than the linear size of such a volume, adV1/3 . For air in the stratosphere at a temperature of 220 K and a pressure of 5.8 kPa, how big should a be for it to be 100 times the mean free path? Take the effective radius of air molecules to be 1.881011 m, which is roughly correct for N2.arrow_forward
- The pressure gauge on a cylinder of gas registers the gauge pressure, which is the difference between the interior pressure and the exterior pressure P0. Lets call the gauge pressure Pg. When the cylinder is full, the mass of the gas in it is mi at a gauge pressure of Pgi. Assuming the temperature of the cylinder remains constant, show that the mass of the gas remaining in the cylinder when the pressure reading is Pgf is given by mf=mi(Pgf+P0Pgi+P0)arrow_forwardAn airtight dispenser for drinking water is 25 cm × 10 cm in horizontal dimensions and 20 cm tall. It has a tap of negligible volume that opens at the level of the bottom of the dispenser. Initially, it contains Water to a level 3.0 cm from the top and air at the ambient pressure, 1.00 atm, from there to the top. When the tap is opened, water will flow out until the gauge pressure at the bottom of dispenser, and thus at the opening of the tap, is 0. What volume of water flows out? Assume the temperature is constant, the dispenser is perfectly rigid, and the water has a constant density of 1000 kg/m3.arrow_forwardLong-distance balloon flights are usually made using a hot-airballoon/ helium-balloon hybrid. The balloon has a sealed, flexible chamber of helium gas that expands or contracts to keep the helium pressure approximately equal to the air pressure outside. The helium chamber sits on top of an open (that is, air can enter or leave), constant-volume chamber of propane-heated air. Assume that the hot air and the helium are kept at a constant temperature by burning propane. A balloon is launched at sea level, where the air pressure is 100 kPa. The density in the hot-air chamber is 1.0 kg/m3. What is the density of the air when the balloon has risen to a height where the atmospheric pressure is 33 kPa?A. 3.0 kg/m3B. 1.0 kg/m3C. 0.66 kg/m3D. 0.33 kg/m3arrow_forward

It is thrust vertically down, closed-end on top, into a freshwater lake until the water rises halfway up in the pipe. What is the depth h of the lower end of the pipe?

- Dry air enters an inclined pipeline in the upward direction being preheated. The pipe has an inner diameter of 0.3 m and a total length of 5 m with a 30° inclination from the horizontal direction. The air enters at 300 kPa (absolute) with a velocity at 3 m/s, density of 3 kg/m³, and at an ambient temperature of 20°C. The electrical heaters around the pipe surface provides a uniform heating flux of 2 kW/m² and the exiting pressure was measured to be 150 kPa.
