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

Unless indicated otherwise, assume the speed of sound in air to be v = 344 m/s. You have a stopped pipe of adjustable length clo

faltersainse [42]

Answer:

Length of pipe $= 0.057$ meter

Explanation:

Speed of a transverse wave on a string

$v = \sqrt{\frac{F}{\mu} }$

where F is the tension in string and $\mu$ is the mass per unit length

Thus,

$\mu = \frac{m}{L}$

Substituting the given values we get -

$\mu = \frac{7.25 * 10^{-3}}{0.62}\\mu = 0.0117 \frac{Kg}{m}$

Speed of a transverse wave on a string

$v = \sqrt{\frac{4510}{0.0117} } \\v = 620.86 \frac{m}{s}$

For third harmonic wave , frequency is equal to

$f = \frac{nv}{2L}$

Substituting the given values, we get -

$f = \frac{3 * 620.86}{2 * 0.62} \\f = 1502.08$

Length of pipe

$L = \frac{nv}{4 f}$

Substituting the given values we get

$n = 1$ for first harmonic wave

$L = \frac{344* 1}{4*1502.08} \\L = 0.057$

Length of pipe $= 0.057$ meter

A 50 kg person steps off a diving platform that is 10 meters above the water below (Olympic height). With what speed do they hit

Nookie1986 [14]

Answer:

14 m/s

Explanation:

The following data were obtained from the question:

Mass = 50 kg

Initial velocity (u) = 0 m/s

Height (h) = 10 m

Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s²

Final velocity (v) =?

The velocity (v) with which the person hit the water can be obtained as shown below:

v² = u² + 2gh

v² = 0² + (2 × 9.8 × 10)

v² = 0 + 196

v² = 196

Take the square root of both side

v = √196

v = 14 m/s

Therefore, he will hit the water with a speed of 14 m/s

A spring-loaded toy dart gun is shot to a height h. The same dart is shot straight up a second time from the same gun, but this

yarga [219]

Answer:

The height reached by the dart in the second shot is (4 H).

Explanation:

It is given that, a spring-loaded toy dart gun is shot to a height h. In this case, all the potential energy stored in the spring is converted to potential gravitational energy at the maximum height.

$\dfrac{1}{2}kx^2=mgH$ ........(1)

At the second shot, the spring is compressed twice as far before firing. x' = 2x

$\dfrac{1}{2}kx'^2=mgh$

$\dfrac{1}{2}k(2x)^2=mgh$ .........(2)

h is the height reached by the dart in the second shot.

Dividing equation (1) and (2) as:

$4=\dfrac{h}{H}$

h = 4H

So, the height reached by the dart in the second shot is (4 H). Hence, this is the required solution.
