5. Anyone who scuba dives is advised not to fly within the next 24 hrs. because the air mixture for diving can introduce nitrogen to the bloodstream. Without allowing the nitrogen to come out of solution slowly, any sudden air-pressure reduction (such as during airplane ascent) can result in the nitrogen forming bubbles in the blood, creating the bends, which can be painful and even fatal. Military special operation forces are especially at risk. What is the change in pressure on such a special-op soldier who must scuba dive at a depth of 20 m in seawater one day and parachute at an altitude of 7.6 km the next day? Assume that the average air density within the altitude range is 0.87 kg/m^3.
Answer the following questions and be sure to show all your work. a. It is difficult to extinguish a fire on a crude oil tanker, because each liter of crude oilreleases 2.80×10^7 J of energy when burned. To illustrate this difficulty, calculate thenumber of liters of water that must be expended to absorb the energy released byburning 1.00 L of crude oil, if the water has its temperature raised from 20.0ºC to 100ºC,it boils, and the resulting steam is raised to 300ºC.b. Discuss additional complications caused by the fact that crude oil has a smaller densitythan water.
