Balloons are often filled with helium gas because it weighs only about one-seventh of what air weighs under identical conditions. The buoyancy force, which can be expressed as Fb = ρairgVballoon, will push the balloon upward. If the balloon has a diameter of 12 m and carries two people, 85 kg each, determine the acceleration of the balloon when it is first released. Assume the density of air is ρ = 1.16 kg/m3 , and neglect the weight of the ropes and the cage.
If a scuba diver descends too quickly into the sea, the internal pressure on each eardrum remains at atmospheric pressure, while the external pressure increases due to the increased water depth. At sufficient depths, the difference between the external and internal pressures can rupture an eardrum. Eardrums can rupture when the pressure difference is as little as 35 kPa. What is the depth at which this pressure difference could occur? The density of seawater is 1025 kg/m3. 1)sketch (include everything in the system) 2)solution(step by step)
When analyzing a sample of ore, a geologist finds that it weighs 2.00 Newtons in air and 1.13 Newtons when immersed in water. What is the density of the ore? What assumptions did you make to answer this question?

A balloon with neglible mass is inflated with helium . The balloon is connected to a 20N cube via a string andbeing placed on water. It is known that air density is 1.16kg/m3 and helium density is 0.16kg/m3 . If the balloon volume is 0.77m3. determine the volume of cube that submerged.
120 L of hydraulic oil have a mass of 110 kg. For the oil, calculate the Specific Weight, γ (kN/m3). (Hint: first calculate the Density). Group of answer choices 8.99 kN/m3 8.55 kN/m3 9.05 kN/m3 9.17 kN/m3 10.1 kN/m3
The density of a floating body can be determined by tying weights to the body until both the body and the weights are completely submerged, and then weighing them separately in air. Consider a wood log that weighs 1400 N in air. If it takes 34 kg of lead (? = 11,300 kg/m3) to completely sink the log and the lead in water, determine the average density of the log.
A tank contains oil (s=0.80), gasoline (s=0.90) and water (s=1). What is the pressure at a depth of 1.6, if the depths of the liquids are respectively, 0.50 m,0.60 m, and 0.80 m? Give your answer in kg/m2.
Consider a differential manometer whose ends are connected to two different pipes A andB and containing different liquids at different levels. Let us assume that the pressure at point A is more than that at point B. Oil is in pipe A whose density 800 kg/m³ shows a difference in mercury levels as 100 mm. The height of oil between center of pipe A to the mercury level in left limb is 200 mm. Methanol (relative density 0.791) is in pipe B and the height of Methanol between center of pipe B and mercury level in the right limb is 5 cm. Calculate the difference in pressures at the two points A and B.
