A frequently quoted rule of thumb in aircraft design is that wings should produce about 1000 N of lift per square meter of wing. (The fact that a wing has a top and bottom surface does not double its area.) (a) At takeoff, an aircraft travels at 60.0 m/s, so that the air speed relative to the bottom of the wing is 60.0 m/s.

What happens to the tension in the string if the Ping-Pong ball is replaced by a wooden ball (heavier) of equal size? (Give a reason.)

(a) The magnitude of upwards buoyant force (FB) on the ball equals to the weight of displaced fluid, and balances the string tension plus the ball's weight: FB = FT + w. Since FB decreases when the alcohol is added, the string tension must also decrease. (b) The magnitude of upwards buoyant force FB is equal to the string tension plus the ball's weight, FB = FT + w. If the ball's weight w increases, the string tension FT must decrease.

a) P1 + 1/2 pv1^2 + pgh = P2 + 1/2 pv2^2 + pgh2 h2 = v1^2 /2g = 33.1 m b) h2 = v1^2 / 2g = 0.196 m = 19.6 cm

A Ping-Pong ball is held submerged in a bucket of water by a string attached to the bucket's bottom. (a) Salt is now added to the water in the bucket, increasing the density of the liquid. What happens to the tension in the string ? (b) What happens to the tension in the string if the Ping-Pong ball is replaced by a smaller spherical object of equal weight?

(a) The tension increases. (Buoyant force is equal to the weight of displaced fluid, which is larger.) (b) The tension decreases. (Since the volume of displaced fluid is smaller, the buoyant force is now smaller.)

There is relatively little empty space between atoms in solids and liquids, so that the average density of an atom is about the same as matter on a macroscopic scale—approximately 103 kg/m3 . The nucleus of an atom has a radius about 10-5 that of the atom and contains nearly all the mass of the entire atom. (a) What is the approximate density of a nucleus? (b) One remnant of a supernova, called a neutron star, can have the density of a nucleus. What would be the radius of a neutron star with a mass 10 times that of our Sun (the radius of the Sun is 7 × 108 m)?

A) Pn = mn/Vn (ma= mn and Rn = 10-5 Ra, Pn = ma/10-5 Va = Pa/10-5=10^3/10^-5 = 10^18 kg/m^3 B) m = pV = p(4/3*pi*R^3) = 10 x (mass sum) = 1.99 x 10^31 kg R=(3m/4*pi*p)^(1/3) = [(3*1.99x10^31 kg)/4*pi*10^18 kg/m)]^(1/3) = 16.8 x 10^3 m = 16.8 km

. Heroes in movies hide beneath water and breathe through a hollow reed (villains never catch on to this trick). In practice, you cannot inhale in this manner if your lungs are more than 60.0 cm below the surface. If this is true, what is the maximum negative gauge pressure, in Pa and also in atmospheres, that you can create in your lungs on dry land?

Breathing through a 60 cm reed means that your lungs can make a negative pressure of ρgh = (1000 kg/m3)(9.8 m/s2)(0.60 m)= 5880 Pa. Dividing by 1 atm = 1.103 × 105 Pa, your lungs can provide a negative gauge pressure of -0.06 atm.

Logs sometimes float vertically in a lake because one end has become water-logged and denser than the other. What is the average density of a uniform-diameter log that floats with 20.0% of its length above water?

During heavy lifting, a disk between spinal vertebrae is subjected to a 5000-N compressional force. (a) What pressure is created, assuming that the disk has a uniform circular cross section 2.00 cm in radius? (b) What deformation is produced if the disk is 0.800 cm thick and has a Young's modulus of 1.5×109 N/m2?

P = F/A = 5000N / pi* (0.0220m^)2 3.98 x 10^6 Pa delta L = 1/ Y * F/A *L0 = 2.1 x 10 -3 cm

Pressure in the spinal fluid is measured as shown in Figure 11.43. If the pressure in the spinal fluid is 10.0 mm Hg: (a) What is the reading of the water manometer in cm water? (b) What is the reading if the person sits up, placing the top of the fluid 60 cm above the tap? The fluid density is 1.05 g/mL.

P knot = 10 mmHg (133 N/m /1.0 mmHg) * (1.0 cm H20 / 98.1 N/m) = 13.6 m H20 B) P= P0 + delta P = P0 + hpg = 76.5 cm H20

As a woman walks, her entire weight is momentarily placed on one heel of her high-heeled shoes. Calculate the pressure exerted on the floor by the heel if it has an area of 1.50 cm2 and the woman's mass is 55.0 kg. Express the pressure in Pa. (In the early days of commercial flight, women were not allowed to wear high-heeled shoes because aircraft floors were too thin to withstand such large pressures.)

P= F/A --> mg/A P= (55kg)(9.80)/1.50*10-4= 3.59*10^6 N/m^2 = 3.59 x 10^6 N/m^2 / 4.448 N * 6.452 *10^-4 m^2 = 521 lb/in

The greatest ocean depths on the Earth are found in the Marianas Trench near the Philippines. Calculate the pressure due to the ocean at the bottom of this trench, given its depth is 11.0 km and assuming the density of seawater is constant all the way down.

10. Solution The flow rate of blood through a 2.00×10-6-m-radius capillary is 3.80×10-9 cm3/s. (a) What is the speed of the blood flow? (This small speed allows time for diffusion of materials to and from the blood.) (b) Assuming all the blood in the body passes through capillaries, how many of them must there be to carry a total flow of 90.0 cm3/s ? (The large number obtained is an overestimate, but it is still reasonable.)

Q = Av = pi * r^2 * v --> v = Q / pi* r^2 b) single capillary flow = total / Q 90/ 3.80 x 10-9 = 2.37 x 10^10

The Huka Falls on the Waikato River is one of New Zealand's most visited natural tourist attractions (see Figure 12.29). On average the river has a flow rate of about 300,000 L/s. At the gorge, the river narrows to 20 m wide and averages 20 m deep. (a) What is the average speed of the river in the gorge? (b) What is the average speed of the water in the river downstream of the falls when it widens to 60 m and its depth increases to an average of 40 m?

A glucose solution being administered with an IV has a flow rate of 4.00 cm3/min . What will the new flow rate be if the glucose is replaced by whole blood having the same density but a viscosity 2.50 times that of the glucose? All other factors remain constant.

Q'= Q ( n/n') = 1.60 cm/min

A certain hydraulic system is designed to exert a force 100 times as large as the one put into it. (a) What must be the ratio of the area of the slave cylinder to the area of the master cylinder? (b) What must be the ratio of their diameters? (c) By what factor is the distance through which the output force moves reduced relative to the distance through which the input force moves?

a) 100/1 b) square root of d.. =10 c) inverse.. 1/100 This tells us that the distance through which the output force moves is reduced by a factor of 100, relative to the distance through which the input force moves.

. (a) Calculate the approximate force on a square meter of sail, given the horizontal velocity of the wind is 6.00 m/s parallel to its front surface and 3.50 m/s along its back surface. Take the density of air to be 1.29 kg/m3 . (The calculation, based on Bernoulli's principle, is approximate due to the effects of turbulence.) (b) Discuss whether this force is great enough to be effective for propelling a sailboat.

a) F = (P1- P2)A = 1/2 p (v2^2 - v1^2)A = 1/2(1.29) [ 6 -3.5] *1.00 m^2 =15.3 N (b) This force is small, but when the sails are large, the forces can be great enough to propel a sailboat. For larger sailboats, sometimes more than one sail is used to increase the surface areas thereby increasing the force applied.

(a) A golf ball hangs by a string from a fishing pole. The golf ball is then lowered just below the surface of a swimming pool. What happens to the tension in the string as the ball submerges? (b) The golf ball is replaced by a much smaller lead fishing sinker of equal weight, and again lowered beneath the water. Is the tension less, the same, or greater than it was for the submerged golf ball?

a) The tension decreases. (b) The tension is greater for the submerged lead sinker than for the submerged golf ball.

A major artery with a cross-sectional area of 1.00 cm2 branches into 18 smaller arteries, each with an average cross-sectional area of 0.400 cm2. By what factor is the average velocity of the blood reduced when it passes into these branches?

The average density of your body decreases when you take a deep breath, because the density of air is substantially smaller than the average density of the body before you took the deep breath.
