• Part A
A pipe leads from a storage tank on the roof of a building to the ground floor. The absolute pressure of the water in the storage tank where it connects to the
pipe is 3.0 x 10° Pa, the pipe has a radius of 1.0 cm where it connects to the storage tank, and the speed of flow in this pipe is 1.6 m/s. The pipe on the
ground floor has a radius of 0.50 cm and is 9.0 m below the storage tank. Find the speed of flow in the pipe on the ground floor.

- It has been proposed that we couldexplore Mars using inflated balloons to hover just above the surface. Thebuoyancy of the atmosphere would keep the balloon aloft. The density ofthe Martian atmosphere is 0.0154 kg/m3 (although this varies with temperature).Suppose we construct these balloons of a thin but tough plastichaving a density such that each square meter has a mass of 5.00 g. Weinflate them with a very light gas whose mass we can ignore. (a) Whatshould be the radius and mass of these balloons so they just hoverabove the surface of Mars? (b) If we released one of the balloons frompart (a) on earth, where the atmospheric density is 1.20 kg/m3, whatwould be its initial acceleration assuming it was the same size as onMars? Would it go up or down? (c) If on Mars these balloons have fivetimes the radius found in part (a), how heavy an instrument packagecould they carry?arrow_forward(Indicates a review question, which means it requires only a basic understanding of the material to answer.
