- Tire gauges for air pressure as well as most other gauges used in an industrial environment take into account the pressure due to atmosphere on earth that's why your car gauge reads zero before you put it in on your tire to check your pressure this is called gauge pressure. The real pressure with any tire or after or other objects containing pressurized stuff would be a combination of what the gauge reads as well as the atmospheric pressure. If a gauge on a tire reads 26.23 psi what is the real pressure in the tire pascals? The atmospheric pressure is 1.01×10 to the fifth power PAarrow_forward> Question 4 of 8 > © Macmillan Learning A 0.573 kg metal cylinder is placed inside the top of a plastic tube, the lower end of which is sealed off by an adjustable plunger. The cylinder comes to rest some distance above the plunger. The plastic tube has an inner radius of 5.37 mm and is frictionless. Neither the plunger nor the metal cylinder allow any air to flow around them. If the plunger is suddenly pushed upwards, increasing the pressure between the plunger and the metal cylinder by a factor of 2.31, what is the initial acceleration a of the metal cylinder? Assume the pressure outside of the tube is 1.00 atm and that the top of the tube is open to the air. a = 27.29 Incorrect m/s² 100 > Attempt 3arrow_forwardAngioplasty is a technique in which arteries partially blocked with plaque are dilated to increase blood flow. By what factor must the radius of an artery be increased in order to increase blood flow by a factor of 3, assuming no change in pressure difference? rf ri Additional Materialsarrow_forward
- A 1mm diameter glass bread is dropped into a cylinder of oil at room temperature. It falls 25 cm to the bottom in 60s at constant speed. The glass and oil have densities of 2500 kg/m^3 and 900 kg/m^3, respectively. A. What is the mass of the bead? B. What is the viscosity of the oil? C. Would you expect the time fall to increase, decrease, or remain the same if the oil was heated up first?arrow_forwardAnswer question a b and c, if possiblearrow_forward5) Submarines need to be extremely strong to withstand the extremely high pressure of water pushing down on them. An experimental research submarine with a volume of 15,000 liters has an internal pressure of 1.2 atm. If the pressure of the ocean breaks the submarine forming a bubble with a pressure of 250 atm pushing on it, how big will that bubble be?arrow_forward
- A plane in air turbulence falls 300 feet in 2 seconds and as a result those passengers who are not buckled down rise up and collide with the ceiling. During the December of 97’, the United Airlines’ Jet 826 flew into severe air turbulence as it was on route to Hawaii from Japan. One airplane passenger died from a broken neck and over 100 passengers sustained various injuries during this turbulence. Come up with a possible theory that might explain how passengers got slammed against the ceiling.arrow_forwardQ6: A balloon behaves so the pressure is * P = CV, C = 100 kPa/m.
