Homework Statement
A bubble with a volume of 1.00 cm3 forms at the bottom of a lake that is 40 m deep. The temperature at the bottom of the lake is 10°C. The bubble rises to the surface where the water temperature is 31°C. Assume that the bubble is small enough that its temperature always...

Homework Statement
The displacement (in meters) of a wave is y = 0.13 sin(t - 3.82x), where t is in seconds and X is in meters.
(a) Is this wave traveling in the +x or -x direction?
1.+x direction.
2.-x direction
(b) What is the displacement y when t = 26.5 s and x = 6.4 m...
ok.
so i set the to two pressures equal to each other
so i got P(oil)=P(mercury)
(.91)(980)h = (980)(.72)(13.6)
solved for h, and provided my answer in cm but its not right :\

A manometer using oil (density 0.91 g/cm3) as a fluid is connected to an air tank. Suddenly the pressure in the tank increases by 0.72 cm of Hg. (a) By how much does the fluid level rise in the side of the manometer that is open to the atmosphere? (b) What would your...
OMG THANKYOU. That did the trick. They wanted us to use density of 1024 for water in a previous problem so i was still using that. Thanks for all your help!
ok that's what i was thinking.
So i did .262/9.8 to get the mass as .0267. Then I divided this by the volume (3.87 × 10-5 m3 ) to get the density of alcohol. Then i divided that density by the density of water (1024), to find the specific gravity. ...its not correct...:(
hmm. so i do i subtract out the mass of the aluminum cylinder (.104) from the apparent wieght in alcohol and then use the new mass in my calculation (m/v)/density of water?
Thanks cepheid...that makes sense. I had totally forgotten the density = m/v formula.
I have another question that has been troubling me regarding specific gravity...
An aluminum cylinder weighs 1.02 N. When this same cylinder is completely submerged in alcohol, the volume of the displaced...
