Determine the absolute pressure in torr exerted on an object submerged 1000 m below the surface of the sea. The density of sea wate is 1020 kg/m3 and the acceleration due to gravity is 9.7 m/s2. The local atmospheric pressure is 0.98 bar.
Consider Argon (Ar) gas at a pressure of 1 bar and temperature of 300 K. The equivalent hardsphere radius (known as the Van Der Waal radius) of an Argon molecule is 188 picometers (pm)and its atomic mass is 39.948u. Note that 1u = 1.6605 x 10-27kg.
a)How many molecules are contained in a cube 1 cm by 1 cm by 1 cm?
b)Estimate the mean free path. At scales much larger than this, a continuum description holds.
c)What is the density of the gas?
d)Estimate the "root mean squared" molecular speed, i.e. SQRT( (V^2) )
e)Estimate the dynamic and kinematic viscosities. Compare these with literature values, forexample from webbook.nist.edu.
f) Plot the variation of dynamic viscosity with temperature in the range between 300K and3000K at a fixed pressure of 1 bar. Use Matlab, Python, Mathematica, or any other softwareyou may choose.
