The pressure inside a champagne bottle can be quite high and can launch a cork explosively. Suppose you open a bottle at sea lev

el. The absolute pressure inside a champagne bottle is 6 times atmospheric pressure; the cork has a mass of 7.5 g and a diameter of 18 m. Assume that once the cork starts to move, the only force that matters is the pressure force.What is the acceleration of the cork? Express your answer with the appropriate units.

Answer:

Explanation:

Given that,

The absolute pressure inside the champagne is 6 times atmospheric pressure

Atmospheric pressure is 101,325 N/m²

So, the absolute pressure in the champagne is

P_abs = 6 × P_atm

P_abs = 6 × 101,325

P_abs = 607,950 N/m²

If the cork of the champagne has a mass of

M = 7.5g

M = 7.5 / 1000 = 0.0075 kg

The diameter of the cork is 18mm, It is no possible for the diameter to be 18m, so I assumed it is 18mm

d = 18mm = 0.018m

The area of the circle will be

Area = πd² / 4

Area = π × 0.018² / 4

Area = 2.545 × 10^-4 m²

We know that,

Pressure = Force / Area

Then,

Force = Pressure × Area

Force = 607,950 × 2.545 × 10^-4

Force = 154.723 N

Then, from newton second law,

F = ma

a = F / m

a = 154.723 / 0.0075

a = 20629.77 m/s²

a ≈ 20,630 m/s²

The acceleration of the cork is 20,630 m/s²

A flat sheet of ice has a thickness of 1.4 cm. It is on top of a flat sheet of crown glass that has a thickness of 3.0 cm. Light
MAXImum [283]

Answer:

t = 2.13 10-10 s , d = 6.39 cm

Explanation:

For this exercise we use the definition of refractive index

        n = c / v

Where n is the refraction index, c the speed of light and v the speed in the material medium.

The refractive indices of ice and crown glass are 1.13 and 1.52, respectively, therefore the speed of the beam in the material medium is

        v = c / n

As the beam strikes perpendicularly, the beam path is equal to the distance of the leaves, there is no refraction, so we can use the uniform motion relationships

        v = d / t

        t = d / v

        t = d n / c

Let's look for the times on each sheet

Ice

        t₁ = 1.4 10⁻² 1.31 / 3 10⁸

        t₁ = 0.6113 10⁻¹⁰ s

Crown glass (BK7)

        t₂ = 3.0 10⁻² 1.52 / 3.0 10⁸

        t₂ = 1.52 10⁻¹⁰ s

Time is a scalar therefore it is additive

         t = t₁ + t₂

         t = (0.6113 + 1.52) 10⁻¹⁰

         t = 2.13 10-10 s

The distance traveled by this time in a vacuum would be

        d = c t

       d = 3 10⁸ 2.13 10⁻¹⁰

       d = 6.39 10⁻² m

       d = 6.39 cm

Who is responsible for documenting the crime scene in detail and collecting physical
miv72 [106K]
Crime scenes contain physical evidence that is pertinent to a criminal investigation. This evidence is collected by crime scene investigators (CSIs) and law enforcement. The location of a crime scene can be the place where the crime took place or can be any area that contains evidence from the crime itself.
