I have a graduated cylinder that is upside down. The open end is just submerged in a big tank of water. The graduated cylinder contains 100 ml of air, at the closed end, and the rest of the space contains water. As I move the graduated cylinder down in the water, the pressure increases and the temperature stays basically constant. What is the absolute pressure when the cylinder is 10 m below the surface of the water? What is the volume of air in my graduated cylinder when it is 10 m below the surface?

A graduated cylinder filled with water rests upside down in a container of water at 0 C. The water is 7.00 cm deep. Attached to the base of the cylinder is a small ring (but since the cylinder is upside down, the ring is at the highest elevation, available for grabbing). The base of the cylinder has mass 10.0 grams with ring included. The cylinder itself has radius 3.00 cm, height 40.0 cm, and mass 100.0 grams (including the base...

A primitive diving bell consists of a cylindrical tank with one end open and one end closed. The tank is lowered into a freshwater lake, open end downward. Water rises into the tank, compressing the trapped air, whose temperature remains constant during the descent. The tank is brought to a halt when the distance between the surface of the water in the tank and the surface of the lake is 35.0 m. Atmospheric pressure at the surface of the lake...

A diving bell is a 3.4 m -tall cylinder closed at the upper end but open at the lower end. The temperature of the air in the bell is 30 ∘C. The bell is lowered into the ocean until its lower end is 100 m deep. The temperature at that depth is 10∘C. a) How high does the water rise in the bell after enough time has passed for the air to reach thermal equilibrium? Express your answer to two...

3. A scuba tank, when fully submerged, displaces 15.7 liters of seawater. The tank has a total mass of 14 kg when empty; when full, it contains 3 kg of air. a) If you release the full tank (from rest) from a spot underneath the surface of the ocean, does it sink, remain at that spot, or rise to the surface? Explain. b) If the tank is initially 2 m below the ocean surface, determine the pressure that the ocean...

An air pump has a cylinder 0.270 m long with a movable piston. The pump is used to compress air from the atmosphere (at absolute pressure 1.01 × 105 Pa ) into a very large tank at a pressure of 5.40 × 105 Pa. (For air, CV = 20.79  J/mol⋅K.) A. The piston begins the compression stroke at the open end of the cylinder. How far down the length of the cylinder has the piston moved when air first begins to...

1) A scuba diver swims below the surface, breathing air from tanks of her scuba gear. a. It’s easiest for her to maintain a constant depth if the buoyant force on her and her equipment exactly balances their weight. How should her average density compare with that of the water around her? b. When she is 20 m below the surface of the water, what is the pressure pushing inward on her chest? c. When she breathes, she expects air...
