You are using water to dilute small amounts of chemicals in the laboratory, drop by drop. How many drops of water are in a 1.0-L bottle? (Hint: Start by estimating the diameter of a drop of water.)

Short Answer

Expert verified

There will be around29058.925 drops of water in the bottle per liter.

Step by step solution

01

Determining the diameter

Here,

As in the question hint is given to estimate the diameter of the drop of water. Once you suppose the diameter of water to be a number we can find out radius by dividing it with two.

Water droplets are always considered in form of a sphere hence the diameter of sphere will be getting.

Using the radius of the sphere we can find out the volume of water present in one drop of water.

D= diameter of water droplet (in)

R= radius of water droplet (in)

V= Volume of water droplet (in3)

02

Volume of one drop of water

Volume of sphere can be obtained by multiplying the radius cube to the value of pie and 43

Let suppose the diameter of water droplet be 0.16inch. Hence the radius of the drop will be R=0.08inch

Volume of water droplet =V=43Ï€¸é3=43Ï€0.083=0.0021in3

The volume of one droplet is 0.0021in3.

03

Number of drops in 1 liter

Again, we need to do conversion here in this case. The number of drops in one liter of bottle can be calculated as below:

=1drop0.021in3×1in2.54cm3×1000cm31L=29058.925droplets/L

Therefore, after the experiment calculation we got around 29058.925drops of water in the bottle per liter.

Calculate the earth’s gravity force on a 75-kg astronaut who is repairing the Hubble Space Telescope 600 km above the earth’s surface, and then compare this value with his weight at the earth’s surface. In view of your result, explain why it is said that astronauts are weightless when they orbit the earth in a satellite such as a space shuttle. Is it because the gravitational pull of the earth is negligibly small?

A physics professor leaves her house and walks along the sidewalk toward campus. After 5 min, it starts to rain, and she returns home. Her distance from her house as a function of time is shown in Fig. E2.10 At which of the labeled points is her velocity (a) zero? (b) constant and positive? (c) constant and negative? (d) increasing in magnitude? (e) decreasing in magnitude?

Planet Vulcan.Suppose that a planet were discovered between the sun and Mercury, with a circular orbit of radius equal to 2/3 of the average orbit radius of Mercury. What would be the orbital period of such a planet? (Such a planet was once postulated, in part to explain the precession of Mercury’s orbit. It was even given the name Vulcan, although we now have no evidence that it actually exists. Mercury’s precession has been explained by general relativity.)

Water flows steadily from an open tank as in Fig. P12.81. The elevation of point 1 is 10.0 m, and the elevation of points 2 and 3 is 2.00 m. The cross-sectional area at point 2 is 0.0480 m2; at point 3 it is 0.0160 m2. The area of the tank is very large compared with the cross-sectional area of the pipe. Assuming that Bernoulli’s equation applies, compute (a) the discharge rate in cubic meters per second and (b) the gauge pressure at point 2.

According to the label on a bottle of salad dressing, the volume of the contents is 0.473 liter (L). Using only the conversions 1 L = 1000 cm3 and 1 in. = 2.54 cm, express this volume in cubic inches.
