Global warming will produce rising sea levels partly due to melting ice team but alga due to the expansion of water as average ocean temperatures rise. To get some idea of the size of this effect, calculate me change in length of a column of water 1.00 km high for a temperature increase of 1.00C. Note that this calculation is only approximate because ocean warming is not uniform with depth.
Calculate the gauge pressures inside 2.00-cm-radius bubbles of water, alcohol, and soapy water. Which liquid forms the most stable bubbles, neglecting any effects of evaporation?
The density of air is 1.3 kg/m3 at sea level. From your knowledge of air pressure at ground level, estimate the height of the atmosphere. As a simplifying assumption, take the atmosphere to be of uniform density up to some height, after which the density rapidly falls to zero. (In reality, the density of the atmosphere decreases as we go up.) (This question is courtesy or Edward F. Redish. For more questions of this type, see http://www.physics.umd.edu/perg/.)
It is dangerous to stand close to railroad tracks when a rapidly moving commuter train passes. Explain why atmospheric pressure would push you toward the moving train.
How do gases differ from liquids?
Earth’s atmosphere is in hydrostatic equilibrium. What this means is that the pressure at any point in the atmosphere must be high enough to support the weight of air above it. How would you expect the pressure on Mt. Everest to differ from the pressure in your classroom? Explain why.
Approximately how does the density of air vary with altitude?
A submarine is stranded on the bottom of the ocean with its hatch 25.0 m below the surface. Calculate the force needed to open the hatch from the inside, given it is circular and 0.450 m in diameter. Air pressure inside the submarine is 1.00 atm.
You are working as an expert witness for the owner of a skyscraper complex in a downtown area. The owner is being sued by pedestrians on the streets below his buildings who were injured by falling glass when windows popped outward from the sides of the building. The Bernoulli effect can have important consequences for windows in such buildings. For example, wind can blow around a skyscraper at remarkably high speed, creating low pressure on the outside surface of the windows. The higher atmospheric pressure in the still air inside the buildings can cause windows to pop out. (a) In your research into the case, you find some overhead views of your clients project, as shown below. The project includes two tall skyscrapers and some park area on a square plot. Plan (i) (Fig. P14.26(i), page 382) was submitted by the original architects and planners. At the last minute, the owner decided he didnt want the park grounds to be divided into two areas and submitted Plan (ii) (Fig. P14.26(ii), which is the way the project was built. Explain to your client why Plan (ii) is a much more dangerous situation in terms of windows popping out than Plan (i). (b) Your client is not convinced by your conceptual argument in part (a), so you provide a numerical argument. Suppose a horizontal wind blows with a speed of 11.2 m/s outside a large pane of plate glass with dimensions 4.00 m 1.50 m. Assume the density of the air to be constant at 1.20 kg/ m3. The air inside the building is at atmospheric pressure. Calculate the total force exerted by air on the windowpane for your client. (c) What If? To further convince your client of the problems with the building design, calculate the total force exerted by air on the windowpane if the wind speed between the buildings is 22.4 m/s, twice as high as in part (b).

When a glass bottle full of vinegar warms up, both the vinegar and the glass expand, but vinegar expands significantly more with temperature than glass. The bottle will break if it was filled to its tightly capped lid. Explain why, and also explain how a pocket of air above the vinegar would prevent the break. (This is the function of the air above liquids in glass containers.)
In the chapter on fluid mechanics, Bernoulli's equation for the flow of incompressible fluids was explained in terms of changes affecting a small volume dV of fluid. Such volumes are a fundamental idea in the study of the flow of compressible fluids such as gases as well. For the equations of hydrodynamics to apply, the mean free path must be much less than the linear size of such a volume, adV1/3 . For air in the stratosphere at a temperature of 220 K and a pressure of 5.8 kPa, how big should a be for it to be 100 times the mean free path? Take the effective radius of air molecules to be 1.881011 m, which is roughly correct for N2.
