If a bubble in sparkling water accelerates upward at the rate of0.225m/s2and has a radius of 0.500mm, what is its mass? Assume that the drag force on the bubble is negligible.

Short Answer

Expert verified

The mass of the bubble in sparkling water is5.11x10-7kg.

Step by step solution

01

Listing the given quantities.

  • The radius of the bubble

(r)=0.500mm

=0.500x10-3m

  • The acceleration is, a=0.225m/s2.
  • The density of water is ÒÏw=1000kg/m3
02

Understanding the concept of buoyant force.

There are two forces acting on the bubble – buoyant force (Fb)and weight.As the bubble is accelerating, using Newton’s second law, we can find the mass of the bubble(Mb).

Formula:

Fnet=Ma

Fb=Mfg

W=Mbg

V=43Ï€°ù3

03

Calculation of mass of the bubble.

The volume of the water displaced by the bubble (Vw)= Volume of the bubble (Vb)

Vw=Vb

=43Ï€r3

Substitute the value in the above equation.

=43x3.14x(500x10-3m)3

role="math" localid="1657556016855" =1.57x10-9m3(1)

Using Newton’s second law,

Fb-W=Mba

ÒÏwVbg-ÒÏbgVb=ÒÏbVba

Since the volume is the same, it would be canceled.

Rearranging the equation,

ÒÏb=ÒÏwgg+a

Substitute the values in the above equation.

=998m3x9.8m/s29.8m/s2+0.255m/s2

role="math" localid="1657556387852" =975.6kg/m3(2)

Mb=ÒÏbxVb

Using the values from (1) and (2), we have

Mb=1.57x10-9kg/m3x975.6m3

=5.11x10-7kg

Mass of the bubble in sparkling water is5.11x10-7kg.

An iron casting containing a number of cavities weighs 6000 Nin air and 4000 Nin water. What is the total volume of all the cavities in the casting? The density of iron (that is, a sample with no cavities) is 7.87g/cm3.

A venturi meter is used to measure the flow speed of a fluid in a pipe. The meter is connected between two sections of the pipe (Figure); the cross-sectional area Aof the entrance and exit of the meter matches the pipe's cross-sectional area. Between the entrance and exit, the fluid flows from the pipe with speed Vand then through a narrow "throat" of cross-sectional area a with speed v. A manometer connects the wider portion of the meter to the narrower portion. The change in the fluid's speed is accompanied by a change Δpin the fluid's pressure, which causes a height difference hof the liquid in the two arms of the manometer. (Here Δpmeans pressure in the throat minus pressure in the pipe.) (a) By applying Bernoulli's equation and the equation of continuity to points 1 and 2 in Figure, show that V=2a2∧pÒÏ(a2-A2), where ÒÏis the density of the fluid.

(b) Suppose that the fluid is fresh water, that the cross-sectional areas are 64cm2in the pipe and 32cm2in the throat, and that the pressure is 55kPain the pipe and 41kPain the throat. What is the rate of water flow in cubic meters per second?
