Snorkelers breathe through tubes that extend above the surface of the water. In prin- ciple, a snorkeler could go deeper with a

longer tube, but the extra pressure at the greater depth would make breathing too difficult. If a snorkeler can develop a pressure in her lungs that is 10 kPa below the pressure outside her body, what is the longest snorkel she could use in the ocean?

Answer:

h = 1.02 m

Explanation:

This is a fluid mechanics exercise, where the pressure is given by

       P = P_{atm} + ρ g h

The gauge pressure is

      P - P_{atm}  = ρ g h

In this case the upper part of the tube we have the atmospheric pressure. and the diver can exert a pressure 10 KPa below the outside pressure, this must be the gauge pressure

     P_{m} =    P - P_{atm}

     P_{m} = ρ g h

     h =P_{m} / ρ g

calculate

     h = 10 103 / (1000 9.8)

     h = 1.02 m

This is the depth at which man can breathe

Early one February morning you go outside to build a snow man. You make a 3.2kg snowball and lift it to a height of 1.2m, then c
Verdich [7]

First the amount of work done in lifting up the snow ball to a height of 1.2m is equal to the potential energy of the ball after the lift.

Therefore mass× gravitational pull×height will give us the work done

=3.2kg ×9.8N/kg×1.2m

=37.632J

then, the work done over the 25m distance if found by the following formula: work done=force×distance

=1.0N×25m

=25J

On reaching the headless snowman you have to lift the ball a further 1.1m to place it as the head 2.3m high.

therefore this will be a change in potential energy which is equal to work done in lifting the ball the additional 1.1m

=m×g×h

=3.2kg×9.8N/kg×1.1m

=34.496J

To get the total we add the amount of work done in the various instances.

If a force does a positive amount of work on an object, does the object’s speed increase, decrease, or remain the same? Justify
iris [78.8K]

Answer:

see that there is no dependence on speed, so the work remains constant

Explanation:

Work is defined by the expression

        W = F. d

where the boldface indicates vectors, this equation can be written in scalar form

         W = f d cos θ

where θ is the angle between force and displacement.

We see that there is no dependence on speed, so the work remains constant

The power is

           P = W / t

           P = f d / t

           p = F v

we see that the power is the one that depends on the speed of the body

How much electrical energy is used by the river cooker oven rated 800 W ,230 V is switched on for 30 minutes
mariarad [96]

Answer:

E = 1440 kJ

Explanation:

It is given that,

Power of a cooker oven is 800 W

Voltage at which it is operated is 230 V

Time, t = 30 minutes = 1800 seconds

We need to find the electrical energy used by the cooker oven. The product of power and time is equal to the energy consumed. So,

E=P\times t\\\\E=800\ W\times 1800\ s\\\\E=1440000\ J\\\\\text{or}\\\\E=1440\ kJ

So, electrical energy of 1440 kJ is consumed by the cooker oven.
