- varrow_forwardA basketball is pressurized to a gauge pressure of PG = 55 kPa when at the surface of a swimming pool. (Patm = 101 kPa). The ball is then submerged in the pool of water which has a density ρ = 1000 kg/m3. Assume the ball does not change in mass, temperature, or volume as it is submerged. Calculate the absolute pressure inside the basketball in kPa when it is at the surface. Write an equation for the pressure difference ΔP between the inside and outside of the ball when it is submerged a distance y below the surface of the water. Solve the pressure equation for the depth (in meters) at which the pressure difference between the inside and outside of the ball will become zero. At this depth the pressure inside the basketball is the same as the pressure outside the ball.arrow_forwardWhat is maximum load a helium balloon can carryarrow_forward

Then, a U-shaped tube is attached that is very narrow so that very little fluid/gas can fit inside the tube. The tube has a small quantity of a fluid of density 1200kg/m³ placed in it. In equilibrium at room temperature - 21.9°C - the height of the fluid on both sides of the U-shaped tube are level. This is illustrated in the image below. What is the temperature of the gas in the spherical container when the left side of the fluid is 13.25cm higher than the right side of the fluid in the U-shaped tube? Atmospheric pressure is 101000Pa. °Carrow_forwardWhat is the pressure inside the drop of mercury of radius 3.00 mm at room temperature?
