4. HW #13 (Chapter 14) Read Sections 14-1 to 14.5 Problems: 14.4, 14.26, 14.35, 14.39, 14.59 Due: Thursday May 8

5. Density does not depend on the size of the object Density is a measure of how much mass occupies a given volume.

6. Densities of common substances

7. The pressure in a fluid Pressure in a fluid is force per unit area. The Pascal is the given SI unit for pressure. 1 Pascal (Pa) = 1 N/m 2 1 atmosphere = 1.01 x 10 5 Pa about 15 PSI

8. Pressure, depth, and Pascal’s Law

9. Pressure Pressure increases as you go down in a fluid (uniform density) p = p 0 +  gh Example: How deep in water is the pressure equal to twice the atmospheric pressure?

10. Absolute Pressure

11. Buoyancy and Archimedes Principle The buoyant force is equal to the weight of the displaced fluid.

12. Buoyancy and Archimedes Principle II

13. A cylinder is completely filled with water. The top of the cylinder is sealed with a tight-fitting lid. If you push down on the lid with a pressure of 1000 Pa, the water pressure at the bottom of the cylinder A. increases by more than 1000 Pa. B. increases by 1000 Pa. C. increases by less than 1000 Pa. D. is unchanged. E. The answer depends on the height of the cylinder. Q14.3

14. A block of ice (density 920 kg/m 3 ) and a block of iron (density 7800 kg/m 3 ) are both submerged in a fluid. Both blocks have the same volume. Which block experiences the greater buoyant force? A. the block of ice B. the block of iron C. Both experience the same buoyant force. D. The answer depends on the density of the fluid. Q14.2 Concept Question
