`"Task: use the bat analogy and answer : what happens if you replace the wheel on your car with a larger wheel ? "`

`"Larger wheel means greater diameter."`

if diameter is 1 then

compare that with:

Scuba divers advise, pressure is proportional with depth

Top of page


Anyone who scuba dives is advised not to fly within the next 24 h because the air mixture for diving can introduce nitrogen to the bloodstream. Without allowing the nitrogen to come out of solution slowly, any sudden air-pressure reduction (such as during airplane ascent) can result in the nitrogen forming bubbles in the blood, creating the bends, which can be painful and even fatal. Military special operation forces are especially at risk. calculate the magnitude of the change in pressure on such a special-op soldier who must scuba dive at a depth of `y_"air"=18 m` in seawater one day and parachute at an altitude of `y_"air"=7.7 km` the next day? Assume that the average air density within the altitude range is `rho_"air"=0.85 (kg)/m^3`, `rho_"seawater"=1024(kg)/m^3`.

Since it asks for the change in pressure:



` p_"air"=p_"seawater"+rho_"seawater"*g*y_"seawater"−rho_"air"*g*y_"air"rarr`

Calculat the magnitude of the displacement of a car

Top of page

What is the magnitude of the displacement of a car that travels half a lap along a circle that has a radius of `r=150 m`?

`"distance traveled"=|Delta vec x|=|vec x_f-vecx_i|=(2pi*r)/2=pi*r=pi*150m=471.238m `


`"|displacement vector|"=2*r=2*150m=300 m`

How about when the car travels a full lap?

`"distance"=2pi*r=2*471.942.46 m`

`"mag of displacement for a full lap?"`



Solution:
Displacement is the change in position.
Therefore the magnitude of the displacement for half a lap is 300 m .
For a full lap (the car returns to its starting position), the displacement is zero .

Task: speed of sound as a function of temperature, killing bats

Top of page
The speed of sound in a gas is given by `v = sqrt(gamma(RT)/M)` where `R` is the gas constant, `T` is the absolute temperature,

`M` is the molecular mass of the gas, and `gamma` is a constant
that is characteristic of the particular molecular structure of the gas.
If temperature `T` increases `4` fold by what factor does speed increase?
A) 4
B) 3
C) 2
D) 1


In order do kill all bats in a cave, assuming speed of sound emiitted by bats is buil in into their brains:
1. Do you have to increase or decrease the temperature `T`?
Hint: in order to kill bats they have to crash into the wall.
Do they have to overestimate or underestimate the distance to the wall ?
