- A simple thermometer is formed by taking a large spherical container of volume 1.13m³ and filling it with an ideal gas. Then, a U-shaped tube is attached that is very narrow so that very little fluid/gas can fit inside the tube. The tube has a small quantity of a fluid of density 1200kg/m³ placed in it. In equilibrium at room temperature - 21.9°C - the height of the fluid on both sides of the U-shaped tube are level. This is illustrated in the image below. What is the temperature of the gas in the spherical container when the left side of the fluid is 13.25cm higher than the right side of the fluid in the U-shaped tube? Atmospheric pressure is 101000Pa. °Carrow_forward1. A bicycle pump inflates a tire of volume 565 mL until the gauge pressure is 6.47 bar at a temperature of 21.7°C. (Note: the volume of the tire before and after it is "inflated" is 565 mL. Initially, the tire contains air at ambient atmospheric pressure.) (a) If the barometric pressure is 1.01 bar, what is the absolute pressure in the tire? (b) (c) How many moles of air does the tire contain?

- A 0.504 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 5.88 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 3.03, 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.arrow_forwardA 0.458 kg metal cylinder is placed inside the top of a plastic tube, the lower end of which is sealed off by an adjustable plunger.
