Question
A shower head has 20 circular openings each with radius 1.0 mm. The shower head is connected to a pipe with a radius of 0.80 cm. If the speed of water in the pipe is 3.0 m/s, what is its speed as it exits the shower head opening?

- You are pumping up a bicycle tire with a hand pump, the piston of which has a 2.00-cm radius. (a) What force in newtons must you exert to create a pressure of 6.90105 Pa (b) What is unreasonable about this (a) result? (c) Which premises are unreasonable or inconsistent?arrow_forwardSuppose you are at the top of Mount Everest and you fill a water balloon. The air pressure at the top of Mount Everest is 58 kPa. a. What is the fractional change in the balloons volume V/Vi when you take it to sea level? b. If instead you take it 100 m below the surface of the ocean, what is the fractional change in its volume?arrow_forwardThe flow rate of blood through 2.00106 -m-radius capillary is 3.80109 cm3/s. (a) What is the speed of the blood flow? (This small speed allows time for diffusion of materials to and from the blood.) (b) Assuming all the blood in the body passes through capillaries, how many of them must there be to carry a total flow of 90.0 cm3/s? (The large number obtained is an overestimate, but it is still reasonable.)arrow_forward
- A rock with a mass of 540 g in air is found to have an apparent mass of 342 g when submerged in water. (a) What mass of water is displaced? (b) What is the volume of the rock? (c) What is its average density? Is this consistent with the value for granite?arrow_forwardBird bones have air pockets in them 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 in air and in water and finds its mass is 45.0 g and its apparent mass when submerged is 3.60 g (the bone is watertight). (a) What mass of water is displaced? (b) What is the volume of the bone? (c) What is its average density?arrow_forwardCase Study Shannon uses the example of a helium balloon to explain the buoyant force. Large helium blimp balloons are sometimes used as an advertisement (Fig. P15.78). The blimp balloon has a volume of 42.8 m3, and the mass of the empty blimp is 13.6 kg. It is held down by either a large-link steel chain or a large-link aluminum chain. Each link of steel has a mass of 2.6 kg, and each link of aluminum has a mass of 0.87 kg. The chain rests on the ground but is not attached to it. The density of helium gas is 0.180 kg/m3. a. How many links hang from the blimp if the steel chain is used? b. Compare your answer with the number of links that would hang if the aluminum chain were used instead. FIGURE P15.78arrow_forward
- (a) As blood passes through the capillary bed in an organ, the capillaries join to form venules (small veins). If the blood speed increases by a factor of 4.00 and the total cross-sectional area of the venules is 10.0 cm2, what is the total cross-sectional area of the capillaries feeding these venules? (b) How many capillaries are involved if their average diameter is 10.0 m?arrow_forward(a) Verify that work input equals work output for a hydraulic system assuming no losses to friction. Do this by showing that the distance the output force moves is reduced by the same factor that the output force is increased. Assume the volume of the fluid is constant. (b) What effect would friction within the fluid and between components in the system have on the output force? How would this depend on whether or not the fluid is moving?arrow_forwardWater is flowing through a pipe that has a constriction opening into a region with a wider cross-sectional area. If the pipe regions are cylindrical with radii of 0.10 m and 0.35 m, respectively, and the water is moving with a speed of 1.50 m/s in the wider section, what is the speed of the water in the constricted section?arrow_forward

(b) How long would it take to fill if you could divert a moderate size river, flowing at 5000 m3/s, into it?arrow_forward(a) The pressure inside an alveolus with a 2.00104 -m radius is 1.40103 Pa, due to its fluid-lined walls. Assuming the alveolus acts like a spherical bubble, what is the surface tension of the fluid? (b) Identify the likely fluid.
