Chapter 14: Q. 1 (page 383)

An object has density 蚁.
a. Suppose each of the object鈥檚 three dimensions is increased by a factor of 2 without changing the material of which the object is made. Will the density change? If so, by what factor? Explain.
b. Suppose each of the object鈥檚 three dimensions is increased by a factor of 2 without changing the object鈥檚 mass. Will the density change? If so, by what factor? Explain.

Short Answer

Expert verified

a) Density will not change.

b) Density will decrease by a factor of 8.

Step by step solution

01

Part(a) Step 1: Given information

Density of object =蚁
All three dimension increased by a factor of 2 without changing the material of which the object is made.

02

Part(a) Step2: Explanation

The density of an object is defined as

density =Mass/Volume

If material is not changed so as volume increases, mass also increases.

So the density will not change

03

Part(b) Step 1: Given information

Density of object =蚁
All three dimension increased by a factor of 2 .

Mass is not changing.

04

Part(b) Step2: Explanation

The density of an object is defined as

density =Mass/Volume

After changing the dimension by 2. The volume will increase by a factor of 8

Assume initial volume = V and Mass = M

then

蚁 = M/V .....................................(1)

Once dimension is increased the volume will become 8V

so the density will be

蚁'=M/(8V) .....................................(2)

Substitute M/V =蚁 in equation(2), we get,

we get

蚁'=蚁 /8

So the density will decrease by a factor of 8

Postural hypotension is the occurrence of low systolic blood pressure when a person stands up too quickly from a reclining position. A brain blood pressure lower than 90mmof Hgcan cause fainting or lightheadedness. In a healthy adult, the automatic constriction and expansion of blood vessels keep the brain blood pressure constant while posture is changing, but disease or aging can weaken this response. If the blood pressure in your brain is 118mmof Hgwhile lying down, what would it be when you stand up if this automatic response failed? Assume your brain is 40cmfrom your heart and the density of blood is1060kg/m3.

It's possible to use the ideal-gas law to show that the density of the earth's atmosphere decreases exponentially with height. That is, 蚁=蚁0exp鈦�鈭�z/z0, where Zis the height above sea level, 蚁0is the density at sea level (you can use the Table 14.1value), and z0is called the scale height of the atmosphere.

a. Determine the value of z0.

Hint: What is the weight of a column of air?

b. What is the density of the air in Denver, at an elevation of 1600m? What percent of sea-level density is this?
