QUESTION 3A Type I offshore life jacket (i.e. personal flotation device) is the type worn by commercial fishermen - it isdesigned for extended survival in rough, open seawater. Consider such a life jacket that uses an impermeablefoam material with a density of 32 kg/m³ - the other parts of the life jacket (straps, fasteners, etc) weigh 0.6 kgand are of negligible volume to the design.a) Draw a free body force diagram for the life jacket.b) Determine the minimum volume of foam material (in L) that is needed for the life jacket in order toprovide a minimum 98 N net upward force when it is fully submerged in seawater (as required by USCoast Guard regulations).

The force acting on the life jacket Fnet = 98 N Density of Material ρ =32 kg/m3 The mass of foam…

A glass tube 1.60m long and having a diameter of 2.5cm is inserted vertically into a tank of oil (specific gravity 0.80) with the open end down and the closed end uppermost. If the open end is submerged 1.30m from the oil surface, determine the height to which the oil will rise in the tube. Assume barometric pressure is 100 kPa and neglect vapor pressure.

The weight of a star is usually balanced by two forces: the gravitational force, acting inward, and the force created by nuclear reaction, acting outward. Over a long period of time, the force due to nuclear reactions gets weaker, causing the gravitational collapse of the star and crushing atoms out of existence. Under such extreme conditions, protons and electrons are squeezed to form neutrons, giving birth to a neutron star. Neutron stars are massively heavy - a teaspoon of the substance of a neutron star would weigh 100 million metric tons on the Earth. a) Consider a neutron star whose mass is twice the mass of the Sun and whose radius is 13.3 km. (The mass of the Sun is 1.99-1030 kg.) If it rotates with a period of 2.57 s, what is the speed of a point on the Equator of this star? Submit Answer Tries 0/99 b) What is the value of g at the surface of this star? Submit Answer Tries 0/99 c) Compare the weight of a 1.30-kg mass on the Earth with its weight on the neutron star.

2.5-m-tall steel cylinder has a cross-sectional area of 1.5 m2. At the bottom, with a height of 0.5 m, is liquid water, on top of which is a 1-m high layer of gasoline, relative density of 0.8. The gasoline surface is exposed to atmospheric air at 101 kPa. What is the absolute highest pressure in the water? a. 15.412 psi b. 0.125 atm c. 95.656 mmHg d. 113.753 kPa
Current Attempt in Progress A submarine is modeled as a cylinder with a length of 240 ft, a diameter of 50 ft, and a conning tower, as shown in the figure below. The submarine can dive a distance of 50 ft from the floating position in about 30 s. Diving is accomplished by taking water into the ballast tank so the submarine will sink. When the submarine reaches the desired depth, some of the water in the ballast tank is discharged leaving the submarine in "neutral buoyancy" (i.e., it will neither rise nor sink). 3% of cylinder 7% of cylinder volume volume 25 ft Ballast tank Partially submerged position 3 ft 50 ft Y'water = 64 lb/ft³ + Totally submerged position Water For the conditions illustrated, find (a) the weight of the submarine and (b) the volume of the water that must be in the ballast tank when the submarine is in neutral buoyancy. For seawater, S = 1.03. (a) W = i ×107 lb (b) = i ft ³

Problem 1: One end of a U-tube that contains water is open to the atmosphere, but the other end is closed. When some air is trapped in the closed end, the difference in the height of the water, h, shown in the figure, is 14.0 cm. Assume the outside air pressure is 0.960 atm. (a) What is the absolute pressure of the trapped air? h (b) What is the gauge pressure of the trapped air?
A child takes a helium balloon on a plane from Denver (with an air pressure of 0.83 atm) on a cool day when the temperature is 20.0oC to Boston (at sea level, with an air pressure of 1.0 atm) where the temperature is 5.0oC. Assume that no gas escapes from the balloon during the flight. What is the volume of the balloon in Boston, relative to its size in Denver? Group of answer choices The volume in Boston is 0.79 times the volume in Denver. The volume in Boston is 0.20 times the volume in Denver. The volume in Boston is 0.87 times the volume in Denver The volume in Boston is 1.3 times the volume in Denver. The volume in Boston is the same as the volume in Denver.
