If a bubble in sparkling water accelerates upward at the rate ofand has a radius of , what is its mass? Assume that the drag force on the bubble is negligible.
At a depth of 10.9 km, the Challenger Deep in the Marianas Trench of the Pacific Ocean is the deepest site in any ocean. Yet, in 1960, Donald Walsh and Jacques Piccard reached the Challenger Deep in the bathyscaph Trieste. Assuming that seawater has a uniform density of, approximate the hydrostatic pressure (in atmospheres) that the Trieste had to withstand. (Even a slight defect in the Trieste structure would have been disastrous.)
How much work is done by pressure in forcing of water through a pipe having an internal diameter of if the difference in pressure at the two ends of the pipe is ?
A large aquarium of height 5.00 mis filled with fresh water to a depth of 2.00 m. One wall of the aquarium consists of thick plastic 8.00 mwide.
By how much does the total force on that wall increase if the aquarium is next filled to a depth of 4.00 m?
In one observation, the column in a mercury barometer (as is shown in Figure) has a measured heighth of . The temperature is, at which temperature the density of mercury role="math" localid="1657193277146" is . The free-fall acceleration g at the site of the barometer is . What is the atmospheric pressure at that site in Pascal and in torr (which is the common unit for barometer readings)?
