Chapter 14: Q. 11 (page 384)

A 20-cm-diameter circular cover is placed over a 10-cm-diameter hole that leads into an evacuated chamber. The pressure in the chamber is 20 kPa. How much force is required to pull the cover off?

Short Answer

Expert verified

Force needed is 638 N

Step by step solution

01

Given information

A 20-cm-diameter circular cover is placed over a 10-cm-diameter hole that leads into an evacuated chamber.

The pressure in the chamber is 20 kPa.

02

2Step2: Explanation

Force needed can be calculated by

Force = difference in pressure x area of plate

Force = difference in pressure x area of plate

F = (P2 -P1) x A ..............................(1)

F = (P2 -P1) x 蟺 r2

P1 = 20000 Pa

P2 = 101325 Pa

r = 0.05 m

Now substitute the values in equation (1) and calculate

F = (101325 Pa- 20000 Pa ) x 3.14 (0.05m)2= 638 N

Force needed is 638 N

The bottom of a steel "boat" is a 5.0m脳10m脳2.0cm piece of steel 蚁steel=7900kg/m3. The sides are made of 0.50-cm thick steel. What minimum height must the sides have for this boat to float in perfectly calm water?

A tree loses water to the air by the process of transpiration at the rate of 110g/h. This water is replaced by the upward flow of sap through vessels in the trunk. If the trunk contains 2000 vessels, each 100渭m in diameter, what is the upward speed of the sap in each vessel? The density of tree sap is1040kg/m3

A spring with spring constant 35 N/m is attached to the ceiling, and a 5.0-cm-diameter, 1.0 kg metal cylinder is attached to its lower end. The cylinder is held so that the spring is neither stretched nor compressed, then a tank of water is placed underneath with the surface of the water just touching the bottom of the cylinder. When released, the cylinder will oscillate a few times but, damped by the water, quickly reach an equilibrium position. When in equilibrium, what length of the cylinder is submerged?

Astronauts visiting a new planet find a lake filled with an unknown liquid. They have with them a plastic cube, 6.0cmon each side, with a density of 840Kg/m3. First they weigh the cube with a spring scale, measuring a weight of 21N. Then they float the cube in the lake and find that two-thirds of the cube is submerged. At what depth in the lake will the pressure be twice the atmospheric pressure of85kPa ?

A wire is stretched right to the breaking point by a 5000 N force. A longer wire made of the same material has the same diameter. Is the force that will stretch it right to the breaking point larger than, smaller than, or equal to 5000 N? Explain.
