A 2 cm diameter spherical fishing lure is cast into a pond and, though it submerges, it does not sink to the bottom but “floats” wherever it is placed (this is called neutral buoyancy). How many grams is this lure?
Estimate the number of atoms in the body of a 50 kg physics student. Note that the human body is mostly water, which has molar mass 18.0 g/mol, and that each water molecule contains three atoms.
Every day a certain amount of water evaporates from Earth’s oceans, lakes, and land surface and forms water vapor and clouds in the atmosphere. Every day a certain amount of rain falls back to Earth. Make the reasonable assumption that, on average, the energy absorbed by the evaporation and lifting of the water is equal to the energy released by its condensation and falling back to earth. The evaporation of one mole of water requires approximately 40.6×103 J of heat. An equal amount of heat is released when a mole of water condenses.
The annual volume of rainfall on Earth is approximately 5.05×105 km3 and the average cloud altitude is 8.3 km above Earth’s surface. How much energy, in joules, is required every day to evaporate and lift the water?

- 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 liquid with a coefficient of volume expansion just fills a spherical shell of volume V (Fig. P16.53).

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? (b) To what temperature should the gas be warmed to raise the piston and dog back to hi?arrow_forwardRectangular tank contains 3.0 kg of air. The length of the tank is 1.1 m and the width is 0.9 m.

- (14%) Problem 2: A cylinder of height H = 50.0 cm and cross sectional area A = 0.10 m² is open to the atmosphere (P = 101325 Pa) and in thermal equilibrium with the surroundings air at 300.0 K. A 20.0 kg piston that seals tightly with the edges of the cylinder (with vacuum grease, so there is little friction between the piston and cylinder) is placed on top and eventually settles at a height h. The cylinder is not insulated. 50% Part (a) How far, in mm, does the piston descend from H to h? Enter a positive value.

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. 0.70 N 3.3 N 0.21 N 0.24 N 1.4 N 17Narrow_forward
