A straightforward method of finding the density of an object is to measure its mass and then measure its volume by submerging it in a graduated cylinder. What is the density of a 240-g rock 89.0 cm3 of water? (Note that the accuracy and practical applications of this technique are more limited than a variety of others that are based on Archimedes' principle.)
A container of water has a cross-sectional area of A=0.1m2 . A piston sits top of the water (see be following figure). There is a spout located 0.15 m from the bottom of tank, open to the atmosphere, and a stream of water exits the spout. The cross sectional area of the spat is As=7.0104m2 . (a) What is the velocity of the water as it leaves the spout? (b) If the opening of the spout is located 1.5 m above the grand, how far from be pout does water hit the floor? Ignore friction and dissipative forces.
A large tanker truck can carry 20 tons (40.000 lb) of liquid (a) What volume of water can it carry? (b) What volume of gasoline can it carry?
Bird bones have air pockets to reduce their weight—this also gives them an average density significantly less than that of the bones of other animals. Suppose an ornithologist weighs a bird bone air and in water and finds its mass is 45.0 g ad its apparent mass when submerged is 3.60 g (assume the bone is watertight.)(a) What mass of is displaced? (b) What is the volume of the bone? (c) What is its average density?
How would you determine the density of an irregularly shaped rock?
In an immersion measurement of a woman's density, she is found to have a mass of 62.0 kg in air an apparent mass of 0.0850 kg completely submerged with lungs empty. (a) What of water does she displace? (b) What is her volume? (c) Calculate her density. (d) If her lung capacity is 1.7S L, is she able to that without treading water with her lungs filled air?
A rock with a mass of 540 g in air is found to have an apparent mass of 342 g when submerged in water. (a) What mass of water is displaced? (b) What is the volume of the rock? (c) What is its average density? Is this consistent with the value for granite?
Archimedes' principle can be used to calculate the density of a fluid as well as that of a solid. Suppose a chunk of iron with a mass of 390.0 g in air is found to have an apparent mass of 350.5 g when completely submerged in an unknown liquid. (a) What mass of fluid does the iron displace? (b) What is the volume of iron, using its density as given Table 14.1? (c) Calculate the fluid's density and identify it.
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 glucose? All other factors remain constant.
What fraction of ice is submerged when it floats in freshwater, given the density of water 0°C is very close to 1000 kg/m3?
The inside volume of a house is equivalent to that of a rectangular solid 13.0 m wide by 200 m long by 2.75 m high. The house is heated by a forced air gas heater. The main uptake air duct of heater is 0.300 m in diameter. What is the average speed of the duct if it carries a volume equal to that of the house’s interior every 15 minutes?
What is the density of 18.0-karat gold that is a mixture of 18 parts gold, 5 parts silver, and 1 part copper? (These value are parts by mass, not volume.) Assume that this is a simple mixture having an average density equal to the weighted densities of its constituents.
