- Look back to figure 14.29. Answer the following two question. Why is poless than atmospheric? Why is pogreater than pi?arrow_forwardVerify that flow of oil is laminar for an oil gusher that shoots crude oil 25.0 m into the air through a pipe with a 0.100-m diameter. The vertical pipe is 50 m long. Take the density of the oil to be 900 kg/m3 and its viscosity to be 1.00(N/m2)s (or 1.00Pas ).arrow_forwardWe stated in Example 11.12 that a xylem tube is of radius 2.50105 m. Verify that such a tube raises sap less than a meter by finding h for it, making the same assumptions that sap's density is 1050 kg/m3, its contact angle is zero, and its surface tension is the same as that of water at 20.0°c.arrow_forward
- A frequency quoted rule of thumb aircraft design is that wings should produce about 1000 N of lift per square meter of wing. (The fact that a wing has a top and bottom surface does not double its area.) (a) At takeoff, an aircraft travels at 60.0 m/s, so that the air speed relative to the bottom of the wing is 60.0 m/s. Given be sea level density of air as 1.29kg/m3, how fast must it move over be upper surface to create the ideal lift? (b) How fast must air move over the upper surface at a cruising speed of 245 m/s and at an altitude where air density is one-fourth that at sea level? (Note that his not all of be aircraft's lift—some comes from be body of the plane, some from engine thrust, and so on. Furthermore, Bernoulli's principle gives approximate answer because flow over wing creates turbulence.)arrow_forwardA trash compactor can compress its contents to 0.350 times their original volume. Neglecting mass of air expelled, by what factor is the density of be rubbish increased?arrow_forwardCheck Your Understanding If the reservoir in Example 14.1 covered twice the area, but was kept to the same depth, would the dam need to be redesigned?arrow_forward
- A Styrofoam slab has thickness h and density s. When a swimmer of mass m is resting on it, the slab floats in fresh water with its top at the same level as the water surface. Find the area of the slab.arrow_forwardA 75.0-kg floats in freshwater 3.00% of his volume above water when his are empty, and 5.00% of his volume above water when his lungs are full. Calculate the volume of air inhales—called his lung capacity—in liters. (b) Does lung volume seem reasonable?arrow_forwardBird bones have air pockets to reduce their weight—this also gives them an average density significantly less than that of the bones of other animals. Suppose an ornithologist weighs a bird bone air and in water and finds its mass is 45.0 g ad its apparent mass when submerged is 3.60 g (assume the bone is watertight.)(a) What mass of is displaced? (b) What is the volume of the bone? (c) What is its average density?arrow_forward
- Referring to Figure 14.20, prove that the buoyant force on be cylinder is equal to the weight of the fluid displaced (Archimedes' principle). You may assume that be buoyant force is F2F1 and that the ends of be cylinder have equal areas A. Note Eat be volume of be cylinder (and that of be fluid displaces) equals (h2h1)A .arrow_forwardA 2.50-kg steel gasoline can holds 20.0 L of gasoline when full. What is the average density of gas can, taking into account be volume occupied by steel as well as by gasoline?arrow_forwardAn oil gusher shoots crude 25.0 m the through a pipe with a 0.100-m diameter. Neglecting resistance but not resistance of the pipe, and assuming laminar flow, calculate pressure at be entrance of be 50.0-m-Iong vertical pipe. Take of the oil to be 900 kg/m3 and its viscosity to be 100(N/m2) s (or 1.00 Pa s). Note that you must take into account the pressure due to 50.0-m column of oil in pipe.arrow_forward
