A solid iron sphere and a solid lead sphere of the same size are each suspended by strings and are submerged in a tank of water. (Note that the density of lead is greater than that of iron.) Which of the following statements are valid? (Choose all correct statements.) (a) The buoyant force on each is the same. (b) The buoyant force on the lead sphere is greater than the buoyant force on the iron sphere because lead has the greater density. (c) The tension in the siring supporting the lead sphere is greater than the tension in the string supporting the iron sphere. (d) The buoyant force on the iron sphere is greater than the buoyant force on the lead sphere because lead displaces more water. (e) None of those statements is true.
Gauge pressure in the fluid surrounding an infant's brain may rise as high as 85.0 mm Hg (5 to 12 mm Hg is normal), creating an outward force large enough to make the skull grow abnormally large. (a) Calculate this outward force in newtons on each side of an infant's skull if the effective area of each side is 70.0 cm2. (b) What is the net force acting on the skull?
The dolphin tank at an amusement park is rectangular in shape with a length of 40.0 m, a width of 15.0 m, and a depth of 7.50 m. The tank is filled to the brim to provide maximum splash during dolphin shows. What is the total amount of force exerted by the water on a. the bottom of the tank, b. the longer wall of the tank, and c. the shorter wall of the tank?
The density of lead is greater than iron, and both metals are denser than water. Is the buoyant force on a solid lead object (a) greater than, (b) equal to, or (c) less than the buoyant force acting on a solid iron object of the same dimensions?
What force must exerted on the master cylinder of a hydraulic lift to support the weight of a 2000-kg car (a large car) resting on a second cylinder? The master cylinder has a 2.00-cm diameter and second cylinder has 24.0-cm diameter.
. A dentist's chair with a person in it weighs 1900 N. The output plunger of a hydraulic system starts Do lift the chair when the dental assistant's foot exerts a force of 45 N on the input piston. Neglecting any difference in the heights of the piston and the plunger, what is the ratio of the area of the plunger to the area of the piston?
Referring to Figure 11.21, prove that the buoyant force on the cylinder is equal to the weight of the fluid displaced (Archimedes' principle). You may assume that the buoyant force is F2F1 and that the ends of the cylinder have equal areas A. Note that the volume of the cylinder (and that of the fluid it displaces) equals (h2h1)A . Figure 11.21 (a) An object submerged in a fluid experiences a buoyant force FB. If FB is greater than the weight of the object, the object will rise. It FB is less than the weight of the object, the object will sink. (b) If the object is removed, it is replaced by fluid having weight Wf1. Since this weight is supported by surrounding fluid, the buoyant force must equal the weight of the fluid displaced. That is, FB=wfl, a statement of Archimedes' principle.
