12장, 문제 26

A rock has mass 1.80 kg. When the rock is suspended from the lower end of a string and totally immersed in water, the tension in the string is 12.8 N. What is the smallest density of a liquid in which the rock will float?

검증된 단계별 안내

Identify the forces acting on the rock when it is immersed in water: the gravitational force (weight), the buoyant force, and the tension in the string.

Use the formula for gravitational force: \( F_g = m \cdot g \), where \( m = 1.80 \text{ kg} \) and \( g = 9.81 \text{ m/s}^2 \). Calculate \( F_g \).

Apply the principle of buoyancy: the buoyant force \( F_b \) is equal to the weight of the displaced water. The tension in the string \( T \) is given as 12.8 N. Use the equation \( F_g = F_b + T \) to find the buoyant force.

The buoyant force can also be expressed as \( F_b = \rho_{water} \cdot V \cdot g \), where \( \rho_{water} \) is the density of water and \( V \) is the volume of the rock. Rearrange to find the volume \( V \) of the rock.

To find the smallest density of a liquid in which the rock will float, set the buoyant force equal to the gravitational force: \( \rho_{liquid} \cdot V \cdot g = F_g \). Solve for \( \rho_{liquid} \) using the volume \( V \) found in the previous step.

주요 개념

질문에 올바르게 답하기 위해 반드시 이해해야 하는 핵심 개념들은 다음과 같습니다.

Buoyancy

Buoyancy is the upward force exerted by a fluid on an object submerged in it. This force is equal to the weight of the fluid displaced by the object. Understanding buoyancy is crucial for determining whether an object will float or sink in a fluid, as it directly affects the net force acting on the object.

Density

Density is defined as mass per unit volume and is a key factor in determining whether an object will float in a fluid. An object will float if its density is less than the density of the fluid it is placed in. Calculating the density of the rock and comparing it to the fluid's density helps determine the conditions for flotation.

Archimedes' Principle

Archimedes' Principle states that the buoyant force on an object submerged in a fluid is equal to the weight of the fluid displaced by the object. This principle is essential for solving problems related to flotation and helps in calculating the tension in the string when the rock is immersed, as well as determining the conditions for the rock to float in a different liquid.

BIO. There is a maximum depth at which a diver can breathe through a snorkel tube (Fig. E12.17) because as the depth increases, so does the pressure difference, which tends to collapse the diver's lungs. Since the snorkel connects the air in the lungs to the atmosphere at the surface, the pressure inside the lungs is atmospheric pressure. What is the external– internal pressure difference when the diver's lungs are at a depth of 6.1 m (about 20 ft)? Assume that the diver is in fresh-water. (A scuba diver breathing from compressed air tanks can operate at greater depths than can a snorkeler, since the pressure of the air inside the scuba diver's lungs increases to match the external pressure of the water.)
