(II) How high would the level be in an alcohol barometer at normal atmospheric pressure?

Short Answer

Expert verified

At normal atmospheric pressure, the level of the alcohol barometer will be at a height of 13.08m.

Step by step solution

01

Step-1:  Pressure of a liquid

The pressure of a liquid can be expressed in terms of density of the substance, gravitational acceleration, and height.

A bicycle pump is used to inflate a tire. The initial tire (gauge) pressure is 210 kPa (30 psi). At the end of the pumping process, the final pressure is 310 kPa (45 psi). If the diameter of the plunger in the cylinder of the pump is 2.5 cm, what is the range of the force that needs to be applied to the pump handle from beginning to end?

Children are told to avoid standing too close to a rapidly moving train because they might get sucked under it. Is this possible? Explain.

(III) A patient is to be given a blood transfusion. The blood is to flow through a tube from a raised bottle to a needle inserted in the vein (Fig. 10鈥�55). The inside diameter of the 25-mm-long needle is 0.80 mm, and the required flow rate is \(2.0\;{\rm{c}}{{\rm{m}}^3}\) of blood per minute. How high h should the bottle be placed above the needle? Obtain \(\rho \) and \(\eta \) from the Tables. Assume the blood pressure is 78 torr above atmospheric pressure.
