A submarine is designed to withstand an absolute pressure of 100 atm. How deep can it go below the water surface?
(Consider the density of water = 1000 kg m–3, 1 atm = 1 × 105 Pa and gravitational acceleration g = 10 m/s2)
990 m
At depth h,
\({P}_{\text{absolute}}={P}_{\text{atm}}+\rho gh\)
Given:
\(100\text{atm}=1\text{atm}+\rho gh\)
\(\rho gh=99\text{atm}=99\times {10}^{5}\text{Pa}\)
\(h=\frac{99\times {10}^{5}}{1000\times 10}=990\text{m}\)
So, maximum depth = \(990\text{m}\).

A raindrop with radius \(\mathrm{R}=0.2 \mathrm{~mm}\) falls from a cloud at a height \(h=2000 \mathrm{~m}\) above the ground. Assume that the drop is spherical through its fall and the force of buoyance may be neglected, then the terminal speed attained by the raindrop is :

An air bubble of volume \(1 \mathrm{~cm}^{3}\) rises from the bottom of a lake \(40 \mathrm{~m}\) deep to the surface at a temperature of \(12^{\circ} \mathrm{C}\). The atmospheric pressure is \(1 \times 10^{5} \mathrm{~Pa}\), the density of water is \(1000 \mathrm{~kg} / \mathrm{m}^{3}\) and \(\mathrm{g}=10 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}^{2}\). There is no difference of the temperature of water at the depth of \(40 \mathrm{~m}\) and on the surface. The volume of air bubble when it reaches the surface will be

A fully loaded aircraft has a mass of \(5.4 \times 10^{5} \mathrm{~kg}\). Its total wing area is \(500 \mathrm{~m}^{2}\). It is in level flight with a speed of \(1080 \mathrm{~km} / \mathrm{h}\). If the density of air is \(1.2 \mathrm{~kg} \mathrm{~m}^{-3}\), the fractional increase in the speed of the air on the upper surface of the wings relative to the lower surface in percentage will be \(\left(g=10 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}^{2}\right)\)
