A 0.389 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 6.73 mm and is frictionless. Neither the plunger nor the metal cylinder allow any air to flow around them.

A 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.

1. A gas fills the right portion of a horizontal cylinder whose radius is 5.70 cm. The initial pressure of the gas is 1.01 x 105 Pa. A frictionless movable piston separates the gas from the left portion of the cylinder, which is evacuated and contains an ideal spring, as the figure shows. The piston is initially held in place by a pin. The spring is initially unstrained, and the length of the gas-filled portion is 21.0 cm. When the pin is removed and the gas is allowed to expand, the length of the gas-filled chamber doubles. The initial and final temperatures are equal. Determine the spring constant of the spring. esc ! 1 A 1 option N 2 W S X command # 3 N/m E D $ 4 C R TI % 5 G Search or type URL V T G ^ 55 6 -Unstrained spring Pin B www MacBook Pro Y H & 7 N U J 00* 8 I M G ( 9 a K O < H I - O L P .
