A common belief is that a hole in a jet plane can suck a person out. On an episode of a popular TV series, the hosts attempted to determine whether this is possible. According to the hosts' experiment, such an event cannot happen. Did they need to perform the experiment? As a science adviser to the show, the hosts ask you to perform a crude calculation to test the myth. A typical jet plane travels at 552 mph at a cruising altitude of 32500 ft. The windows on a jet plane measure 14.0 in x 14.0 in. Calculate the force F exerted on such a window as the plane flies at 32500 ft above the sea level. Assume the density and pressure of air at 32500 ft are 0.410 kg/m³ and 259 mbar, respectively, but that the interior of the plane remains pressurized to atmospheric pressure, 1 atm.

The bends during flight. Anyone who scuba dives is advised not to fly within the next 24 h 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 magnitude of the change in pressure on such a special-op soldier who must scuba dive at a depth of 19 m in seawater one day and parachute at an altitude of 7.5 km the next day? Assume that the average air density within the altitude range is 0.84 kg/m3.
In the first decade of the 20th century Jean Perrin carried out important investigations on the sedimentation, in the gravitational field, of particles of gamboges, mastic, and other paint pigments. Consider particles of density 1.2 g.cm-3 and of the following radii: (a) 1 mm, (b) 10 \muμm, and (c) 10 nm. In each case, assuming Stokes’s law to apply, estimate the distance the particle would sediment in 1 hour, in water at 20oC (\etaη = 1.002 x 10-3 kg.m-1.s-1 and ρ = 0.998 g.cm-3). Which of the particles would have the longest sedimentation distance? Which of them would have the shortest sedimentation distance?

The free-fall acceleration on the surface of a fictional planet is about 1/2 that on the surface of the Earth.. The radius of the planet is about 0.71RE (where we use the symbol RE = Earth's radius).

A hurricane is a tropical storm formed over the ocean by low atmospheric pressure. As a hurricane approaches land, inordinate ocean swells with a very high tides accompany the hurricane. Normally for a hurricane, there is an "eye" located at the center with very low wind velocity. Figure Q2a depicts a hurricane hovering over the ocean swell below. The atmospheric pressure at the point 1, generally normal for the ocean, which is located 300 km from the eye is 10 m in mercury (Hg). At point 1, the winds are calm. Given that the density of seawater and mercury is 1023.6 kg/m3 and 13534 kg/m3 , respectively, and the density of air at normal sea level temperature and pressure to be 1.22 kg/m3. i. Apply a proper form of energy conservation principle and estimate the ocean swells at the eye of the hurricane at point 3 (h1) and point 2 (h2). Please note that the wind velocity at the eye of the hurricane (point 3) is very low and the wind velocity at point 2 is 70 m/s. List down all the…
