CHAPTER 9
Conceptual Problems
C1. A container is filled with water and the pressure at the container bottom is P. If the container
is instead filled with oil having specific gravity 0.80, what new bottom pressure results?
a. a pressure < P
b. the same pressure P
c. a pressure > P
d. This is unable to be determined with the information given.
C2. A container is filled with water and the pressure at the bottom of the container is P. Then the
container is emptied halfway and topped off with oil of density 0.80 10 3 kg / m 3 , which
floats on top of the water. What is the pressure at the bottom of the container now?
a. a pressure < P
b. the same pressure P
c. a pressure > P
d. This is unable to be determined with the information given.
C3. At a pressure of 1 atmosphere a column of mercury in a barometer is supported to the height
h = 0.76 m. The density of mercury is 13.6 10 3 kg / m 3 . A barometer of similar design
filled with water would support a column of water how high at a pressure of 1 atmosphere?
a. more than ten times h
b. about 1.36 h
c. less than one tenth h
d. the same height h
C4. When an artery gets a constricted region due to plaque, how does the pressure in this region
compare to the pressure in an unconstricted region adjacent?
a. Since this is a closed system, the pressure is the same in both regions.
b. In the constricted region the blood moves at a higher speed than in the unconstricted
region resulting in an increased pressure.
c. In the constricted region the blood moves at a higher speed than in the unconstricted
region resulting in a decreased pressure.
d. In the constricted region the blood moves at a lower speed than in the unconstricted
region resulting in an increased pressure.
C5. An ice cube with a small solid steel sphere frozen inside floats in a glass of water filled to
the brim. What happens to the level of water in the glass as a result of the ice melting?
a. It goes up, overflowing.
b. It stays the same.
c. It goes down.
d. It depends on air pressure, thus the answer is indeterminate.

19. A solid object is made of two materials, one material having density of 2 000 kg/m3 and the
other having density of 6 000 kg/m3. If the object contains equal volumes of the materials,
what is its average density?
a. 3 000 kg/m3
b. 4 000 kg/m3
c. 5 300 kg/m3
d. more information is needed
20. A solid object is made of two materials, one material having density of 2 000 kg/m3 and the
other having density of 6 000 kg/m3. If the object contains equal masses of the materials,
what is its average density?
a. 3 000 kg/m3
b. 4 000 kg/m3
c. 5 300 kg/m3
d. more information is needed

21. What is the total force on the bottom of a 2.0-m-diameter by 1.0-m-deep round wading pool
due to the weight of the air and the weight of the water? (Note the pressure contribution from
the atmosphere is 1.0 105 N/m2, the density of water is 1 000 kg/m3, and g = 9.8 m/s2.)
a. 3.4 105 N
