Well, taking out the weather option ... I hardly ever do.
If I'm looking at a specific technical problem, then a scan on a source I'm not allowed to cite here, it seems, or some such may give me a hint as to whether it's going to be any help to me. If it is, i continue. If it's isn't, then i'll go away and decide whether I should pursue the problem or not (ie am I wasting my energy here ?)
I suspect, though, that I'm not representative of users.

At a depth of 1030 m in Lake Baikal (a fresh water lake in Siberia), the pressure has increased by 100 atmospheres (to about 107

dangina [55]

Answer:

A volume of a cubic meter of water from the surface of the lake has been compressed in 0.004 cubic meters.

Explanation:

The bulk modulus is represented by the following differential equation:

$K = - V\cdot \frac{dP}{dV}$

Where:

$K$ - Bulk module, measured in pascals.

$V$ - Sample volume, measured in cubic meters.

$P$ - Local pressure, measured in pascals.

Now, let suppose that bulk remains constant, so that differential equation can be reduced into a first-order linear non-homogeneous differential equation with separable variables:

$-\frac{K \,dV}{V} = dP$

This resultant expression is solved by definite integration and algebraic handling:

$-K\int\limits^{V_{f}}_{V_{o}} {\frac{dV}{V} } = \int\limits^{P_{f}}_{P_{o}}\, dP$

$-K\cdot \ln \left |\frac{V_{f}}{V_{o}} \right| = P_{f} - P_{o}$

$\ln \left| \frac{V_{f}}{V_{o}} \right| = \frac{P_{o}-P_{f}}{K}$

$\frac{V_{f}}{V_{o}} = e^{\frac{P_{o}-P_{f}}{K} }$

The final volume is predicted by:

$V_{f} = V_{o}\cdot e^{\frac{P_{o}-P_{f}}{K} }$

If $V_{o} = 1\,m^{3}$ , $P_{o} - P_{f} = -10132500\,Pa$ and $K = 2.3\times 10^{9}\,Pa$ , then:

$V_{f} = (1\,m^{3}) \cdot e^{\frac{-10.1325\times 10^{6}\,Pa}{2.3 \times 10^{9}\,Pa} }$

$V_{f} \approx 0.996\,m^{3}$

Change in volume due to increasure on pressure is:

$\Delta V = V_{o} - V_{f}$

$\Delta V = 1\,m^{3} - 0.996\,m^{3}$

$\Delta V = 0.004\,m^{3}$

A volume of a cubic meter of water from the surface of the lake has been compressed in 0.004 cubic meters.

Answer: True

Explanation: When light is reflected off lets say a mirror it is bent and changes direction to bounce off of another wall or object. For example if you take a flash light and shine it into a mirror the light reflects into a different direction your welcome

A diver 40 m deep in 10 degrees C fresh water exhales a 1.5 cm diameter bubble.

zzz [600]

Answer:

0.0257259766982 m

Explanation:

$P_2$ = Atmospheric pressure = 101325 Pa

$d_1$ = Initial diameter = 1.5 cm

$d_2$ = Final diameter

$\rho$ = Density of water = 1000 kg/m³

h = Depth = 40 m

The pressure is

$P_1=P_2+\rho gh\\\Rightarrow P_1=101325+1000\times 9.81\times 40\\\Rightarrow P_1=493725\ Pa$

From ideal gas law we have

$\dfrac{P_1V_1}{T_1}=\dfrac{P_2V_2}{T_2}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{P_1\dfrac{4}{3\times8}\pi d_1^3}{T_1}=\dfrac{P_2\dfrac{4}{3\times8}\pi d_2^3}{T_2}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{P_1d_1^3}{T_1}=\dfrac{P_2d_2^3}{T_2}\\\Rightarrow d_2=(\dfrac{P_1d_1^3T_2}{P_2T_1})^{\dfrac{1}{3}}\\\Rightarrow d_2=(\dfrac{493725\times 0.015^3\times (20+273.15)}{101325\times (10+273.15)})^{\dfrac{1}{3}}\\\Rightarrow d_2=0.0257259766982\ m$

The diameter of the bubble is 0.0257259766982 m
