In a classroom demonstration, the pressure inside a soft drink can is suddenly reduced to essentially zero. Assuming the can to

be a cylinder with a height of 12cm and a diameter of 6.5cm, find the net inward force exerted on the vertical sides of the can due to atmospheric pressure.

Answer:

3141N or 3.1 ×10³N to 2 significant figures. The can experiences this inward force on its outer surface.

Explanation:

The atmospheric pressure acts on the outer surface of the can. In order to calculate this inward force we need to know the total surface area of the can available to the air outside the can. Since the can is a cylinder with a total surface area given by 2πrh + 2πr² =

A = 2πr(r + h)

Where h = height of the can = 12cm

r = radius of the can = 6.5cm/2 = 3.25cm

r = diameter /2

A = 2π×3.25 ×(3.25 + 12) = 311.4cm² = 311.4 ×10-⁴ = 0.031m²

Atmospheric pressure, P = 101325Pa = 101325 N/m²

F = P × A

F = 101325 ×0.031.

F = 3141N. Or 3.1 ×10³ N.

(1 point) A rectangular tank that is 3 feet long, 9 feet wide and 12 feet deep is filled with a heavy liquid that weighs 110 pou
Aloiza [94]

Answer:

Explanation:

Work in pumping water from the tank is given as

W = ∫ y dF. From a to b

Where dF is the differential weight of the thin layer of liquid in the tank, y is the height of the differential layer

a is the lower limit of the height

b is the upper limit of the height.

We know that, .

F = ρVg

Where F is the weight

ρ is the density of water

V is the volume of water in tank

g is the acceleration due to gravity

Then,

dF = ρg ( Ady)

We know that the density and the acceleration due to gravity is constant, also the base area of the tank is constant, only the height that changes.

Then,

ρg = 62.4 lbs/ft³

Area = L×B = 3 × 9 = 27ft²

dF = ρg ( Ady)

dF = 1684.8dy

The height reduces from 12ft to 0ft

Then,

W = ∫ y dF. From a to b

W = ∫ 1684.8y dy From 0 to 12

W = 1684.8y²/2 from 0 to 12

W = 842.4 [y²] from y = 0 to y = 12

W = 842.4 (12²-0²)

W = 121,305.6 lb-ft

How do you find the net force acting on an object?
yaroslaw [1]
It's D. By "net" they mean the overall force the object experiences, so sum all the force vectors, those in a negative direction (eg friction) should be subtracted.

To find the number of neutrons in an atom, what would you subtract?
kolezko [41]
You look up the element in the periodic table. Subtract the atomic number (small number) from the mass number (big number). The answer is the number of neutrons.
