Unit 3 section 4 problems density and pressure relations
Suppose your refrigerator (1.0 m by 0.60 m by 0.75 m) only contains a dozen
eggs (44 g each). Compare the mass of air contained in the fridge to the mass of
the eggs.
2. Compare the pressure exerted on the skin of a balloon if you press with a force of
2.1 N using your finger (A=1.0 x 10-4 m2) and a needle (A=2.5 x 10-7 m2). If the
balloon pops with a pressure of 3.0 x 105 Pa, find the force needed to pop the
balloon with the needle.
The Titanic was found lying at the bottom of the North Atlantic at a depth of 2.5
miles. What is the pressure (in atm) at this depth?
A cubical box 20.00 cm on a side is completely immersed in a fluid. The pressure
at the top of the box is 105.0 kPa and at the bottom of the box is 106.8 kPa. What
is the density of the fluid? What is the depth of the fluid at the top of the box?
To inspect a 14,500.0 N car, it is raised with a hydraulic lift. If the radius of the small piston is 4.0 cm and the radius of the large piston is 17 cm, find the force that must be exerted on the small piston to lift the car.
A piece of wood with a density of 706 kg/m3 and volume of 8.00 x 10-6 m3 is tied with a string to the bottom of a water-filled beaker. Find the tension in the string.
What percentage of an iceberg projects above the surface of seawater?
Water travels through a 9.6 cm diameter fire hose at a rate of 1.3 m/s. At the end of the hose, the water flows out through a nozzle with diameter 2.5 cm. What is the speed of the water coming out of the nozzle?
