The largest graduated cylinder in my lab holds 2 L and has an inner diamter (the part that holds the water) of 8 cm. When it is

full of 2 L of water, what is the pressure at the bottom of the cylinder in Pa?

Answer:

<em>3924 Pa</em>

<em></em>

Explanation:

Volume of cylinder = 2 L = 0.002 m^3 (1000 L = 1 m^3)

diameter of the inner cylinder = 8 cm = 0.08 m (100 cm = 1 m)

radius of the inner cylinder = diameter/2 = 0.08/2 = 0.04 m

area of the inner cylinder = $\pi r^{2}$

where $\pi$ = 3.142,

and r = radius = 0.04 m

area of inner cylinder = 3.142 x $0.04^{2}$ = 0.005 m^2

<em>height h of the water in this cylinder = volume/area</em>

h = 0.002/0.005 = 0.4 m

<em>pressure at the bottom of the cylinder due to the height of water = pgh</em>

where

p = density of water = 1000 kg/m^3

g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s^2

h = height of water within this cylinder = 0.4 m

pressure = 1000 x 9.81 x 0.4 = <em>3924 Pa</em>

Why do transformers hum? Transformer noise is caused by a phenomenon which causes a piece of magnetic sheet steel to extend itself when magnetized. When the magnetization is taken away, it goes back to its original condition. This phenomenon is scientifically referred to as magnetostriction.

A 40 kg girl and an 8.4 kg sled are on the surface of a frozen lake, 15 m apart. By means of a rope, the girl exerts a 5.2 N for

stealth61 [152]

Answer:

(a) $a_s=0.62\frac{m}{s^2}$

(b) $a_s=0.13\frac{m}{s^2}$

(c) $x_f=2.6m$

Explanation:

(a) According to Newton's second law, the acceleration of a body is directly proportional to the force exerted on it and inversely proportional to it's mass.

$a_s=\frac{F}{m_s}\\a_s=\frac{5.2N}{8.4kg}\\a_s=0.62\frac{m}{s^2}$

(b) According to Newton's third law, the force that the sled exerts on the girl is equal in magnitude but opposite in the direction of the force that the girl exerts on the sled:

$a_g=\frac{F}{m_g}\\a_g=\frac{5.2N}{40kg}\\a_g=0.13\frac{m}{s^2}$

(c) Using the kinematics equation:

$x_f=x_0+v_0t \pm \frac{at^2}{2}$

For the girl, we have $x_0=0$ and $v_0=0$ . So:

$x_f_g=\frac{a_gt^2}{2}(1)$

For the sled, we have $v_0=0$ . So:

$x_f_s=x_0_s-\frac{a_st^2}{2}(2)$

When they meet, the final positions are the same. So, equaling (1) and (2) and solving for t:

$x_0_s-\frac{a_st^2}{2}=\frac{a_st^2}{2}\\t^2(a_g+a_s)=2x_0_s\\t=\sqrt{\frac{2x_s_0}{a_g+a_s}}\\t=\sqrt{\frac{2(15m)}{0.13\frac{m}{s^2}+0.62\frac{m}{s^2}}}\\t=6.32s$

Now, we solve (1) for $x_f_g$

$x_f_g=\frac{0.13\frac{m}{s^2}(6.32s)^2}{2}\\x_f_g=2.6m\\x_f=2.6m$

A sample of n2 gas occupies a volume of 746 ml at stp. What volume would n2 gas occupy at 155 ◦c at a pressure of 368 torr?

musickatia [10]

Answer:

2.41 L

Explanation:

We can solve the problem by using the ideal gas equation, which can be rewritten as:

$\frac{p_1 V_1}{T_1}=\frac{p_2 V_2}{T_2}$

where we have:

$p_1 = 1.01\cdot 10^5 Pa$ (initial pressure is stp pressure)

$V_1 = 746 mL = 0.746 L = 7.46\cdot 10^{-4}m^3$ is the initial volume

$T_1 = 0^{\circ}=273 K$ is the initial temperature (stp temperature)

$p_2 = 368 torr = 4.9\cdot 10^4 Pa$ is the final pressure

$V_2 = ?$ is the final volume

$T=155^{\circ}=428 K$ is the final temperature

By substituting the numbers inside the formula and solving for V2, we find the final volume:

$V_2 = \frac{p_1 V_1 T_2}{T_1 p_2}=\frac{(1.01\cdot 10^5 Pa)(7.46\cdot 10^{-4} m^3)(428 K)}{(273 K)(4.9\cdot 10^4 Pa)}=2.41\cdot 10^{-3} m^3$

which corresponds to 2.41 L.
