A cylindrical bucket, open at the top, is 25.0 cm high and 10.0 cm in diameter. A circular hole with a cross-sectional area 1.50 cm2 is cut in the center of the bottom of the bucket. Water flows into the bucket from a tube above it at the rate of 2.40 x 10-4m3/s. How high will the water in the bucket rise?
You take an empty glass jar and push it into a tank of water with the open mouth of the jar downward, so that the air inside the jar is trapped and cannot get out. If you push the jar deeper into the water, does the buoyant force on the jar stay the same? If not, does it increase or decrease? Explain.
Hot Jupiters. In 2004 astronomers reported the discovery of a large Jupiter-sized planet orbiting very close to the star (hence the term 鈥渉ot Jupiter鈥). The orbit was just the distance of Mercury from our sun, and it takes the planet onlydays to make one orbit (assumed to be circular). (a) What is the mass of the star? Express your answer in kilograms and as a multiple of our sun鈥檚 mass. (b) How fast (in km>s) is this planet moving?
You throw a glob of putty straight up toward the ceiling,which is 3.60 m above the point where the putty leaves your hand.The initial speed of the putty as it leaves your hand is 9.50 m/s.
(a) What is the speed of the putty just before it strikes the ceiling?
(b) How much time from when it leaves your hand does it take theputty to reach the ceiling?
You hold a hose at waist height and spray water horizontally with it. The hose nozzle has a diameter of 1.80 cm, and the water splashes on the ground a distance of 0.950 cm horizontally from the nozzle. If you constrict the nozzle to a diameter of 0.750 cm, how far from the nozzle, horizontally, will the water travel before it hits the ground? (Ignore air resistance.)
