An expensive vacuum System can achieve a pressure as low as 1.00107N/m2 at 20C. How many atoms are there in a cubic centimeter at this pressure and temperature?
Dry air is primarily composed of nitrogen. In a classroom demonstration, a physics instructor pours 2.00 L of liquid nitrogen into a beaker. After the nitrogen evaporates, how much volume does it occupy if its density is equal to that of the dry air at sea level? Liquid nitrogen has a density of 808 kg/m3.
How much stress is cleated in a steel beam if its temperature changes from 15 to 40 but it cannot expand?

A liquid with a coefficient of volume expansion just fills a spherical shell of volume V (Fig. P16.53). The shell and the open capillary of area A projecting from the top of the sphere are made of a material with an average coefficient of linear expansion . The liquid is free to expand into the capillary. Assuming the temperature increases by T, find the distance h the liquid rises in the capillary.
Review. A steel wire and a copper wire, each of diameter 2.000 mm, are joined end to end. At 40.0C, each has an unstretched length of 2.000 m. The wires are connected between two fixed supports 4.000 m apart on a tabletop. The steel wire extends from x = 2.000 m to x = 0, the copper wire extends from x = 0 to x = 2.000 m, and the tension is negligible. The temperature is then lowered to 20.0C. Assume the average coefficient of linear expansion of steel is 11.0 106 (C)1 and that of copper is 17.0 106 (C)1. Take Youngs modulus for steel to be 20.0 1010 N/m2 and that for copper to be 11.0 1010 N/m2. At this lower temperature, find (a) the tension in the wire and (b) the x coordinate of the junction between the wires.
The mass of a hot-air balloon and its cargo (not including the air inside) is 200 kg. The air outside is at 10.0C and 101 kPa. The volume of the balloon is 400 m3. To what temperature must the air in the balloon be warmed before the balloon will lift off? (Air density at 10.0C is 1.244 kg/m3.)
How many cubic meters of helium are required to lift a light balloon with a 400-kg payload to a height of 8 000 m? Take Hc = 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 pair = 0e-z/8 000, where z is in meters and 0 = 1.20 kg/m3 is the density of air at sea level.
