Many fish maintain buoyancy with a gas-filled swim bladder. The pressure inside the swim bladder is the same as the outside water pressure, so when a fish descends to a greater depth, the gas compresses. Adding gas to restore the original volume requires energy. A fish at a depth where the absolute pressure is 3.0 atm has a swim bladder with the desired volume of 5.0 × 10-4 m3. The fish now descends to a depth where the absolute pressure is 5.0 atm.a. The gas in the swim bladder is always the same temperatureas the fish’s body. What is the volume of the swim bladder at the greater depth?b. The fish remains at the greater depth, slowly adding gas to the swim bladder to return it to its desired volume. How much work is required?
Snorkelers breathe through short tubular "snorkels"
while swimming under water very near the surface.
One end of the snorkel attaches to the snorkeler's
mouth while the other end protrudes above the
water's surface. Unfortunately, snorkels cannot
support breathing to any great depth: it is said that
a typical snorkeler below a water depth of only
about 30 cm cannot draw a breath through a
snorkel.
Part A
Based on this claim, what is the approximate fractional change in a typical person's lung volume when drawing a breath?
Assume,
in equilibrium, the air pressure in a snorkeler's lungs matches that of the surrounding water pressure.

The plunger of a syringe has an internal diameter of 1.0 cm and the end of the needle
has an internal diameter of 0.35 mm. A practitioner lightly squeezes the plunger, but
no serum is emitted by the needle into a vein. So the practitioner gradually increases
the squeezing force that she exerts on the plunger such that serum begins to be
emitted from the needle into the vein. Assuming no surface tension or friction, what is
the minimum squeezing force that the practitioner applies to the plunger in order that
serum begins to be emitted from the needle into the vein? Take the pressure of blood
in the vein to be 20 mmHg above that of atmospheric pressure.

- Consider the piston cylinder apparatus shown in Figure P20.81. The bottom of the cylinder contains 2.00 kg of water at just under 100.0c. The cylinder has a radius of r = 7.50 cm. The piston of mass m = 3.00 kg sits on the surface of the water. An electric heater in the cylinder base transfers energy into the water at a rate of 100 W. Assume the cylinder is much taller than shown in the figure, so we dont need to be concerned about the piston reaching the top of the cylinder. (a) Once the water begins boiling, how fast is the piston rising? Model the steam as an ideal gas. (b) After the water has completely turned to steam and the heater continues to transfer energy to the steam at the same rate, how fast is the piston rising?arrow_forwardA cylinder that has a 40.0-cm radius and is 50.0 cm deep is filled with air at 20.0C and 1.00 atm (Fig. P10.74a). A 20.0-kg piston is now lowered into the cylinder, compressing the air trapped inside as it takes equilibrium height hi (Fig. P16.74b). Finally, a 25.0-kg dog stands on the piston, further compressing the air, which remains at 20C (Fig. P16.74c). (a) How far down (h) does the piston move when the dog steps onto it?

- 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 .

Take Hc = 0.179 kg/m3.

A small leak occurs in one of the window seals in the passenger compartment. Model the air as an ideal fluid to estimate the speed of the airstream flowing through the leak.arrow_forwardReview. This problem is a continuation of Problem 39 in Chapter 19. A hot-air balloon consists of an envelope of constant volume 400 m3. Not including tire air inside, the balloon and cargo have mass 200 kg. The air outside and originally inside is a diatomic ideal gas at 10.0C and 101 kPa, with density 1.25 kg/m3. A propane burner at the center of the spherical envelope injects energy into the air inside. The air inside stays at constant pressure. Hot air, at just the temperature required to make the balloon lift off, starts to fill the envelope at its closed top, rapidly enough so that negligible energy flows by heat to the cool air below it or out through the wall of the balloon. Air at 10C leaves through an opening at the bottom of the envelope until the whole balloon is filled with hot air at uniform temperature. Then the burner is shut off and the balloon rises from the ground. (a) Evaluate the quantity of energy the burner must transfer to the air in the balloon. (b) The heat value of propanethe internal energy released by burning each kilogramis 50.3 MJ/kg. What mass of propane must be burned?arrow_forward
