Chapter 16, Problem 11P
Each year thousands of children are badly burned by hot tap water. Figure P16.11 shows a cross-sectional view of an antiscalding faucet attachment designed to prevent such accidents. Within the device, a spring made of material with a high coefficient of thermal expansion controls a movable plunger. When the water temperature rises above a preset safe value, the expansion of the spring causes the plunger to shut off the water flow. Assuming that the initial length L of the unstressed spring is 2.40 cm and its coefficient of linear expansion is 22.0 × 10–6 (°C)–1, determine the increase in length of the spring when the water temperature rises by 30.0°C. (You will find the increase in length to be small. Therefore, to provide a greater variation in valve opening for the temperature change anticipated, actual devices have a more complicated mechanical design.)

A high-pressure gas cylinder contains 50.0 L of toxic gas at a pressure of 1.55 × 107 Pa and a temperature of 25.0°C. Its valve leaks after the cylinder is dropped. The cylinder is cooled to dry ice temperature (-78.5°C) to reduce the leak rate and pressure so that it can be safely repaired.
What is the final pressure, in pascals, in the tank, assuming a negligible amount of gas leaks while being cooled and that there is no phase change?
To what temperature, in kelvins, must the tank be cooled from its initial state to reduce the pressure to 1.00 atm (assuming the gas does not change phase and that there is no leakage during cooling)?
During inhalation, a person’s diaphragm and intercostal muscles contract, expanding the chest cavity and lowering the internal air pressure below ambient so that air flows in through the mouth and nose to the lungs. Suppose a person’s lungs hold 1250 mL of air at a pressure of 1.00 atm. If the person expands the chest cavity by 525 mL while keeping the nose and mouth closed so that no air is inhaled, what will be the air pressure in the lungs in atm? Assume the air temperature remains constant.

- A gas is in a container of volume V0 at pressure P0. It is being pumped out of the container by a piston pump. Each stroke of the piston removes a volume Vs through valve A and then pushes the air out through valve B as shown in Figure P19.74.

The diameters of the two pipes are 3 cm and 5 cm. Water is to be pumped by a 68 percent efficient motor–pump unit that draws 8 kW of electric power during operation. The minor losses and the head loss in the pipes that connect the parallel pipes to the two reservoirs are considered to be negligible. Determine the total flow rate between the reservoirs and the flow rates through each of the parallel pipes.arrow_forwardDuring inhalation, a person's diaphragm and intercostal muscles contract, expanding the chest cavity and lowering the internal air pressure below ambient so that air flows in through the mouth and nose to the lungs.
