The largest bottle ever made by blowing glass has a volume of about 0.720 m3. Imagine that this bottle is filled with air that behaves as an ideal diatomic gas. The bottle is held with its opening at the bottom and rapidly submerged into the ocean. No air escapes or mixes with the water. No energy is exchanged with the ocean by heat. (a) If the final volume of the air is 0.240 m3, by what factor does the internal...

A man of mass m=74.0 kg is holding his breath and floating, at rest, on the surface of a lake. While holding his breath, his density is p=994.0 kg.m^3. He exhales, which increases his density to 1030.0 kg/m^3 and so he begins to sink. The density of water is 1000.0 kg/m^3. a) when the man is floating at the surface of lake, what percent of his body's volume is above water? b) once the man exhales, what is the buoyancy...
