An automobile company displays a die-cast model of its first car, made from 9.70 kg of iron. To celebrate its hundredth year in business, a worker will recast the model in solid gold from the original dies. What mass of gold is needed to make the new model? (The density o iron is 7.86 x 103 kg/m3, and that of gold is 19.30 x 103 kg/m3.) kg

The inside diameters of the larger portions of the horizontal pipe depicted in Figure P9.45 are 2.50 era. Water flows to the right at a rate of 1.80 104 m3/s. Determine the inside diameter of the constriction. Figure P9.45
The pressure at the bottom of a glass filled with water ( = 1 000 kg/m3) is P. The water is poured out and the glass is filled with ethyl alcohol ( = 806 kg/m3). The pressure at the bottom of the glass is now (a) smaller than P (b) equal to P (c) larger than P (d) indeterminate.
How many cubic meters of helium are required to lift a balloon with a 400-kg payload to a height of 8 000 m? Take He = 0.179 kg/m3. Assume the balloon maintains a constant volume and the density of air decreases with the altitude z according to the expression air = 0ez/8, where z is in meters and 0 = 1.20 kg/m3 is the density of air at sea level.
Mercury is poured into a U-tube as shown in Figure P15.17a. The left arm of the tube has cross-sectional area A1 of 10.0 cm2, and the right arm has a cross-sectional area A2 of 5.00 cm2. One hundred grams of water are then poured into the right arm as shown in Figure P15.17b. (a) Determine the length of the water column in the right arm of the U-tube. (b) Given that the density of mercury is 13.6 g/cm3, what distance h does the mercury rise in the left arm?
Spherical panicles of a protein of density 1.8 g/cm3 are shaken up in a solution of 20C water. The solution is allowed to stand for 1.0 h. If the depth of water in the tube is 5.0 cm, find the radius of the largest particles that remain in solution at the end of the hour.
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?
Show that the Reynolds number NRis unitless by substituting units for all the quantities in its definition and cancelling.
Scurrilous con artists have been known to represent gold-plated tungsten ingots as pure gold and sell them to the greedy at prices much below gold value but deservedly far above the cost of tungsten. With what accuracy must you be able to measure the mass of such an ingot in and out of water to tell that it is almost pure tungsten rather than pure gold?
