the nitrogen to come out of solution slowly, any sudden
air-pressure reduction (such as during airplane ascent) can result in
the nitrogen forming bubbles in the blood, creating the bends,

- A vertical cylinder of cross-sectional area A is fitted with a tight-fitting, frictionless piston of mass m (Fig. P18.40). The piston is not restricted in its motion in any way and is supported by the gas at pressure P below it. Atmospheric pressure is P0. We wish to find the height h in Figure P18.40. (a) What analysis model is appropriate to describe the piston? (b) Write an appropriate force equation for the piston from this analysis model in terms of P, P0, m, A, and g. (c) Suppose n moles of an ideal gas are in the cylinder at a temperature of T. Substitute for P in your answer to part (b) to find the height h of the piston above the bottom of the cylinder.

A 20.0-kg piston is now lowered into the cylinder, compressing the air trapped inside as it takes equilibrium height hi (Fig. P16.74b). Finally, a 25.0-kg dog stands on the piston, further compressing the air, which remains at 20C (Fig. P16.74c). (a) How far down (h) does the piston move when the dog steps onto it? (b) To what temperature should the gas be warmed to raise the piston and dog back to hi?arrow_forwardA gas is in a container of volume V0 at pressure P0. It is being pumped out of the container by a piston pump. Each stroke of the piston removes a volume Vs through valve A and then pushes the air out through valve B as shown in Figure P19.74.

This pressure causes the force that pushes the bullet through the barrel. The barrel has a length of 0.61 m and an opening whose radius is 2.8 × 10-³ m. A bullet (mass = 2.6 X 10-³ kg) has a speed of 370 m/s after passing through this barrel.

- The plunger of a syringe has an internal diameter of 1.0 cm and the end of the needle has an internal diameter of 0.35 mm. A practitioner lightly squeezes the plunger, but no serum is emitted by the needle into a vein. So the practitioner gradually increases the squeezing force that she exerts on the plunger such that serum begins to be emitted from the needle into the vein. Assuming no surface tension or friction, what is the minimum squeezing force that the practitioner appli to the plunger in order that serum begins to be emitted from the needle into the vein? Take the pressure of blood in the vein to be 20 mmHg above that of atmospheric pressure. 0.70 N 1.4 N 3.3 N 1.7 N 0.21 N 0.24 Narrow_forwardhigh-pressure gas cylinder contains 50.0 L of toxic gas at a pressure of 1.35 × 107 Pa and a temperature of 25.0°C. Its valve leaks after the cylinder is dropped. The cylinder is cooled to dry ice temperature (-78.5°C) to reduce the leak rate and pressure so that it can be safely repaired. A) what is the final pressure, in pascals, in the tank assuming negligible amount of gas leaks while being cooled and that there is no phase change ? B) What is the final pressure in pascals if one tenth of the gas escapes during the process?

- 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.arrow_forwardFive gas molecules have speeds of 500, 600, 700, 800, and 900 m/s.
