Question:
4.A viewing window on the side of a large tank at a public aquarium measures 53 in. by 58 in. The average gauge pressure from the water is 3 psi. What is the total outward force on the window?
5.The total mass of the hydrogen gas in the Hindenburg zeppelin was 18,000 kg. What volume did the hydrogen occupy? (Assume that the temperature of the hydrogen was 0C and that it was at a pressure of 1 atm.)
6.A large balloon used to sample the upper atmosphere is filled with 835 m3 of helium. What is the mass of the helium (in kg)?
7.Find the gauge pressure (in psi) at the bottom of a freshwater swimming pool that is 17.1 ft deep.
8.The depth of the Pacific Ocean in the Mariana Trench is 36,198 ft. What is the gauge pressure at this depth?
9.An ebony log with volume 13.0 ft3 is submerged in water. What is the buoyant force on it (in lb)? (Enter the magnitude.)
10.An empty storage tank has a volume of 7,690 ft . What is the buoyant force exerted on it by the air? (Assume the air is at 0C
and 1 atm.)
11.A modern-day zeppelin holds 9,180 m3 of helium. Compute its maximum payload at sea level. (Assume the helium and air to be at 0C and 1 atm.)
