One study found that the dives of emperor penguins ranged from 45 m to 265 m below the surface of the ocean. a. Using the density of seawater, what is the range of pressures experienced by the penguins between these two depths? b. At what depth below the surface is the pressure 10 times the normal atmospheric pressure?
To allow a car to slow down or stop, hydraulic brakes transmit forces from a master cylinder to the brake pads through a fluid. Imagine this system as a tube filled with an incompressible fluid and a piston on each end. A force of 95.0 N is applied to a piston 2.65 cm in diameter on one end of the tube. a. What is the magnitude of the force that is exerted on the piston 5.15 cm in diameter on the other side? b. If the 2.65-cm piston is displaced by 1.00 cm, by how much is the 5.15-cm piston displaced?
A manometer containing water with one end connected to a container of gas has a column height difference of 0.60 m (Fig. P15.72).

(a) A water hose 2.00 cm in diameter is used to fill a 20.0-L bucket. If it takes 1.00 min to fill the bucket, what is the speed v at which water moves through the hose? (Note: 1 L = 1 000 cm3.) (b) The hose has a nozzle 1.00 cm in diameter. Find the speed of the water at the nozzle.
The density of air in the Earths atmosphere decreases according to the function =0eh/h0, where 0=1.20kg/m3 is the density of air at sea level and h0 is the scale height of the atmosphere, with an average value of 7640 m. What is the maximum payload that a balloon filled with 2.50 103 m3 of helium (He=0.179kg/m3) can lift to an altitude of 10.0 km?
Case 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 P15.78
