We fully submerge an irregular 3 kglump of material in a certain fluid. The fluid that would have been in the space now occupied by the lump has a mass of 2 kg. (a) When we release the lump, does it move upward, move downward, or remain in place? (b) If we next fully submerge the lump in a less dense fluid and again release it, what does it do?

Short Answer

Expert verified
  1. Movement ofblockswhen we release the lump is downward.
  2. Movement of blocks when we release the lump in less dense fluid is downward.

Step by step solution

01

The given data 

  1. Mass of submerged lump, m= 3kg
  2. Mass of fluid,mf=2kg
02

Understanding the concept of the buoyant force

Using the concept of buoyant force, we can calculate the buoyant force on the fluid by the mass of the object. To float the object in fluid, buoyant force must be greater than or equal to the weight of the object.

Formula:

The buoyant force acting on the fluid due to the weight of the object, FB=Vg (i)

The weight of the object, Fg=mg (ii)

03

Calculation of the movement of the blocks if lump is released

a)

We know that to float an object in a fluid, the buoyant force must be greater than or equal to the weight of the object. Thus, using equations (i) and (ii), we get that

FBFgW

As the mass of the submerged lump is greater than the mass of fluid, when the lump is released, it moves downwards.

04

Calculation of the movement of the blocks when the fluid is less dense

b)

Due to less dense fluid, buoyant force will be less. Thus, we get the force as:

FBFgW

Hence, the lump moves downwards due to greater weight than buoyant force.

A garden hose with an internal diameter of 1.9cmis connected to a (stationary) lawn sprinkler that consists merely of a container with 24holes, each 0.13cmin diameter. If the water in the hose has a speed of 0.91m/s, at what speed does it leave the sprinkler holes?

In Figure 14-38, a cube of edge length L=0.600mand mass 450kgis suspended by a rope in an open tank of liquid of density 1030kgm3. (a)Find the magnitude of the total downward force on the top of the cube from the liquid and the atmosphere, assuming atmospheric pressure is 1.00atm, (b) Find the magnitude of the total upward force on the bottom of the cube, and (c)Find the tension in the rope. (d) Calculate the magnitude of the buoyant force on the cube using Archimedes鈥 principle. What relation exists among all these quantities?

Three liquids that will not mix are poured into a cylindrical container. The volumes and densities of the liquids are0.50L, 2.6 g/cm3; 0.25 L, 1.0 g/cm3; and0.40 L, 0.80 g/cm3 . What is the force on the bottom of the container due to these liquids? One liter , 1L=1000 cm3. (Ignore the contribution due to the atmosphere.)

When a person snorkels, the lungs are connected directly to the atmosphere through the snorkel tube and thus are at atmospheric pressure 1) In atmospheres, what is the differencepbetween this internal air pressure and the water pressure against the body if the length of the snorkel tube is 20 cm (standard situation) &2) In atmospheres, what is the differencepbetween this internal air pressure and the water pressure against the body if the length of the snorkel tube is 4.0m(probably lethal situation)? In the latter, the pressure difference causes blood vessels on the walls of the lungs to rupture, releasing blood into the lungs. As depicted in Figure, an elephant can safely snorkel through its trunk while swimming with its lungsbelow the water surface because the membrane around its lungs contains connective tissue that holds and protects the blood vessels, preventing rupturing.

The L-shaped tank shown in Figure is filled with water and is open at the top. (a) If d=5.0m, what is the force due to the water on face A and (b) If d=5.0m, what is the force due to the water on face B?
