Suppose a man has a mass of 76kg and a density of 0.92g/cm3.

A) Calculate his volume.

b) Calculate the mass of air that he displaces, using the density of air from Table 5.2. The density of air is 1.29kg/m3

c) Calculate the buoyant force on him due to the air he displaces and compare this to his weight in newtons.

Respuesta :

Answer:

A) 0.08260 cubic meter

B) 106.554 grams

C) 1.044 Newton

Step-by-step explanation:

A) Volume = mass/density

Substituting the given values, we get -

Volume = [tex]\frac{76000}{0.92} =82608.69[/tex] cubic centimeter

[tex]= 0.08260[/tex] cubic meter

B) Mass = volume * density

Mass of air =

[tex]= 0.08260 * 1.29 \\= 0.106554\\[/tex]Kilogram

[tex]106.554[/tex] grams

C) Buoyant force = density * acceleration due to gravity * Volume

Buoyant force due to air  =

[tex]0.08260 * 9.8 * 1.29 \\1.044[/tex]Kg-m/s or Newton
