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 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?
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.
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?
(a) What is the mass of a deep breath of air having a volume of 2.00 L? (b) Discuss the effect taking such a breath has on your body's volume and density.
Verigy that the SI of hpg is N/m2.
(a) Convert normal blood pressure readings of 120 over 80 mm Hg to newtons per meter squared using be relationship for pressure due to the weight of a fluid (p=hg) rater a conversion factor. (b) Explain why be blood pressure of an infant would likely be smaller than that of an adult. Specifically, consider the smaller height to which blood mast be pumped.
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?
A small statue is recovered in an archaeological dig. Its weight is measured to be 96 lb, and its volume 0.08 ft3. (a) What is the statue's weight density? (b) What substance is it?
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?
A Hydrometer is an instrument used to determine liquid density. A simple one is sketched in Figure P9.84. The bulb of a syringe is squeezed and released to lift a sample of the liquid of interest into a tube containing a calibrated rod of known density. (Assume the rod is cylindrical.) The rod. of length L and average density 0, floats partially immersed in the liquid of density . A length h of the rod protrudes above the surface of the liquid. Show that the density of the liquid is given by =0LLh Figure P9.84
