rest，and has a final velocity of 6.00 m/s？Express the moment of inertia as a multiple of MR ，where M is
the mass of the object and R

Twin skaters approach one another as shown in Figure 9.30 and lock hands.（a）Calculate their final angular
velocity，given each had an initial speed of 2.50 m/s relative to the ice. Each has a mass of 70.0 kg，and their
centers of mass are 0.800 m from their locked hands. You may approximate their moments of inertia to be that
of point masses at this radius.（b）Compare the initial and final kinetic energy.

（a）Convert normal blood pressure readings of 120 over 80 mm Hg to N/m using the relationship for pressure
2
due to the weight of a fluid（P ＝hρg）rather than a conversion factor.（b）Convert these pressures to 1b/in .
（c）Discuss why blood pressure for an infant could be smaller than for an adult. Specifically consider the
smaller height to which blood must be pumped.

Bird bones have air pockets in them to reduce their weight---this also gives them an average density
significantly less than that of the bones of other animals. Suppose an ornithologist weights a bird bone in air and
in water and finds its mass is 45.0 g and its apparent mass when submerged is 3.60 g（it is watertight）.（a）
What mass of water is displaced？（b）What is the volume of the bone？（c）What is its average density？

likely fluid.（You may need to extrapolate between values in Table 10.3.）

We stated in Example 10.12 that a xylem tube is of radius 2.50 × 10 m. Verify that such a tube raises sap less
than a meter by finding h for it，making the same assumptions as in the example.

A full-term fetus typically has a mass of 3.50 kg.（a）What pressure does the weight of such a fetus create if it
2
rests on the mother's bladder，supported on an area of 90.0 cm ？（b）Convert this pressure to mm Hg and
determine if it alone is great enough to trigger the micturition reflex（it will add to any pressure already existing
in the bladder）.

9.00 cm diameter fire hose while carrying a flow of 40.0 L/s？（b）To what maximum height above the nozzle
can this water rise？（The actual height will be significantly smaller due to air resistance.）

glucose？All other factors remain constant.

The arterioles（small arteries）leading to an organ，such as the visual cortex of the brain，constrict in order to
decrease flow to the organ. To essentially shut down an organ，blood flow is reduced to 1.00％ of its original

Table 12.4 gives the vapor pressure of water at 40.0℃ to be 7.34 × 10 N/m . Using the ideal gas law，
3
calculate the density of water vapor in g/m that creates a partial pressure equal to this vapor pressure. The
3
result should be the same as the saturation vapor density at that temperature（51.1 g/m ）.
