In an immersion measurement of a woman's density, she is found to have a mass of 62.0 kg in air an apparent mass of 0.0850 kg completely submerged with lungs empty. (a) What of water does she displace? (b) What is her volume? (c) Calculate her density. (d) If her lung capacity is 1.7S L, is she able to that without treading water with her lungs filled air?
A man has a mass of 80 kg and a density of 955kg/m3 (excluding the air in his lungs). (a) Calculate his volume. (b) Find the buoyant force air exerts on him. (c) What the ratio of the buoyant force to his weight?
What is density of a woman floats in fresh water with 4.00% of her volume above the surface? (This could be measured by placing her in a Wii marks on the side to measure how much water she displaces when floating and when held under water.) (b) What percent of her volume is above surface when she floats in seawater?
If a person's body has a density of 995 kg/m3, what fraction of the body will be submerged when floating gently in (a) freshwater? (b) In salt water with a density of 1027 kg/m3?
Do fluids exert buoyant forces in a “weightless" environment, such as in the space shuttle? Explain your answer.
Oil having a density of 930 kg/m3 floats on water. A rectangular block of wood 4.00 cm high and with a density of 960 kg/m3 floats partly in the oil and partly in the water. The oil completely covers the block. How far below the interface between the two liquids is the bottom of the block?
Why is a force exerted by a static fluid on a surface always perpendicular to the surface?
Bird bones have air pockets to reduce their weight—this also gives them an average density significantly less than that of the bones of other animals. Suppose an ornithologist weighs a bird bone air and in water and finds its mass is 45.0 g ad its apparent mass when submerged is 3.60 g (assume the bone is watertight.)(a) What mass of is displaced? (b) What is the volume of the bone? (c) What is its average density?
Will the same ship float higher in salt water than in freshwater? Explain you answer.
A Styrofoam slab has thickness h and density s. When a swimmer of mass m is resting on it, the slab floats in fresh water with its top at the same level as the water surface. Find the area of the slab.
A simple compass cute made by placing a small bar magnet on a cork floating in water. (a) What fraction of a plain cork will be submerged when floating in water? (b) If the cork has a mass of 10.0 g and a 20.0-g magnet is placed on it, what fraction of the cork will be submerged? (c) Will the bar magnet and cork float in ethyl alcohol?
Fluid originally flows through a tube at a rate of 100 cm3/s. To illustrate the sensitivity of flow rate to various factors, calculate be new flow rate for following changes with all other factors remaining the same as in original conditions. (a) Pressure difference increases by a factor of 1.50. (b) A new fluid wit 3.00 times greater viscosity is substituted. (c) The tube is replaced by one having 4.00 times the length. (d) Another tube used with a 0.100 times the original. (e) Yet another tube is substituted with a radius 0.100 times the original and half length, and pressure difference is increased by factor of 1.50.
