A host pours the remnants of several of wine into a jug a party. The host then inserts a cork with a 2.00-cm diameter into the bottle, placing it in direct contact with the wine. The host is amazed when the host pounds the cork into place and the bottom of the jug (with a 14.0-cm diameter) breaks away. Calculate the extra force exerted against the bottom if he pounded the cork with a 120-N force.
You are part of a team in an engineering class that is working on a scale model of a new design for a life vest. You have been asked to find the mass of a piece of foam that will be used for flotation. Because the piece is too bulky to fit on your balance, you break it into two parts. You measure the mass of the first part as 128.3 0.3 g and the second part as 77.0 0.3 g. a. What are the maximum and minimum values for the total mass you might reasonably report? b. What is the best estimate for the total mass of the foam? Hint: Propagation of uncertainty is described in Appendix A.
A crass host pours the remnants of several bottles of wine into a jug after a party. He then inserts a cork with a 2.00-cm diameter into the bottle, placing it in direct contact with the wine. He is amazed when he pounds the cork into place and the bottom of the jug (with a 14.0-cm diameter) breaks away. Calculate the extra force exerted against the bottom if he pounded the cork with a 120-N force.
In Take-Home Experiment: Inhalation, we measured the average flow rate Q of air traveling through the trachea during each inhalation. Now calculate the average air speed in meters per second through your trachea during each inhalation. The radius of the trachea in adult humans is approximately 10-2 m. From the data above, calculate the Reynolds number for the air flow in the trachea during inhalation. Do you expect the air flow to be laminar or turbulent?
When a glass bottle full of vinegar warms up, both the vinegar and the glass expand, but the vinegar expands significantly more with temperature than does the glass. The bottle will break if it is filled up to its very tight cap. Explain why and how a pocket of air above the vinegar prevents the bottle from breaking.
A girl has a large, docile dog she wishes to weigh on a small bathroom scale. She reasons that she can determine her dogs weight with the following method. First she puts the dogs two front feet on the scale and records the scale reading. Then she places only the dog's two back feet on the scale and records the reading. She thinks that the sum of the readings will he the dogs weight. Is she correct? Explain your answer.
As a first approximation. Earth's continents may be thought of as granitr blocks floating in a denser rock (called peridotitc) in the same way that ice floats in water. (a) Show that a formula describing this phenomenon is gt = pd where g is the density of granite (2.8 103 kg/m3), p is the density of peridotite (3.3 103 kg/m3), t is the thickness of a continent, and d is the depth to which a continent floats in the peridotite. (b) If a continent sinks 5.0 km into the peridotite layer (this surface may be thought of as the ocean floor), what is the thickness of the continent?
A container of water has a cross-sectional area of A=0.1m2 . A piston sits top of the water (see be following figure). There is a spout located 0.15 m from the bottom of tank, open to the atmosphere, and a stream of water exits the spout. The cross sectional area of the spat is As=7.0104m2 . (a) What is the velocity of the water as it leaves the spout? (b) If the opening of the spout is located 1.5 m above the grand, how far from be pout does water hit the floor? Ignore friction and dissipative forces.
