a. What volume of water has the same mass as 8.0 m3 of ethyl alcohol?
b. If this volume of water is in a cubic tank, what is the pressure at the bottom?

Short Answer

Expert verified

a) Volume is 6.312 m3

b) Pressure is 18 kPa

Step by step solution

01

Part(a) Step1: Given Information

Vol 8.0 m3of ethyl alcohol is 8.0 m3

02

Part(a) Step2 : Explanation

Volume can be calculated as V = M/ÒÏ

First calculate mass of ethyl alcohol , then use that mass to calculate volume of water

Mass of ethyl alcohol = Me = V x ÒÏe

ÒÏe = density of ethyl alcohol = 789 kg/m3

V = 8 m3

Me = 8 x 789 kg/m3 = 6312 kg.

Now find the volume of the water

Vw = M/ÒÏw = 6312kg1000kg/m3=6.312m3

03

Part(b) Step 1 : given information

The volume of water in part(a) is filled in a cubic tank,

04

Explanation

First find the dimension of the cubic tank for a volume 6.312 m3

The side of a cube is

a=6.3123=1.85m

Now find the pressure exerted

pressureP=hÒÏg=1.85×1000×9.8=18kPa

Pressure exerted is 18 kPa.

A friend asks you how much pressure is in your car tires. You know that the tire manufacturer recommends 30psi, but it's been a while since you've checked. You can't find a tire gauge in the car, but you do find the owner's manual and a ruler. Fortunately, you've just finished taking physics, so you tell your friend, "I don't know, but I can figure it out." From the owner's manual you find that the car's mass is1500kg. It seems reasonable to assume that each tire supports one-fourth of the weight. With the ruler you find that the tires are 15cm wide and the flattened segment of the tire in contact with the road is 13cm long. What answer-in psi-will you give your friend?
