Pascal's Law states that a fluid transmits pressure equally in all directions.
True
False
We called this a:
dropper
pipette
cartesian diver
Where will this likely be?
at the top of the 2 liter bottle floating
at the bottom of the 2 liter bottle
Where does the air go after water pressure is added?
Disappears like a magic trick
The air turns into water
Compacted together at the top of the dropper
Adding force to the sides....
increases pressure
decreases pressure
loses pressure
Gravity pulls the cartesian diver toward the center of the earth
TRUE
FALSE
When the pressure on a gas increases...
volume increases
volume decreases
volume is unchanged
Pascal's principle suggests which statement is the true ?
The dropper is pulled down because it is now heavier and filled with water.
The air inside the bottle compresses because it is being pressed by the surrounding water.
There is pressure inside the dropper because the pressure is equal throughout the bottle.
The pressure from being squeezed makes the water push the dropper downward.
Choose the correct statement:
By squeezing on the top of the sealed plastic container decreases the volume and therefore increases air pressure above the water.
By squeezing the bottle the pressure on the air inside the dropper is increased as water fills the dropper. The dropper becomes heavier and sinks.
When pressure is applied in a closed bottle, how is the pressure distributed?
More pressure is applied near the top of the bottle.
More pressure is applied to the bottom of the bottle.
All the pressure is evenly distributed throughout the whole bottle.
All the pressure is applied outside of the closed system bottle.
What will happen to the dropper if you don't add enough water?
It will sink to the bottom
It will react the same with the right amount of water
It will stay at the surface of the water
Why is gravity needed in the Cartesian Diver experiment?
It pushes up the air
It helps the water go up the dropper
it pulls the dropper down
It helps pull the dropper up when you release pressure
What happens to the air in the dropper when the bottle is squeezed?
It is compressed
It disperses
It disappears
When there is barely any air in the Cartesian diver (dropper) it is _____________.
At the bottom
At the top
Does nothing
None of the above
Will this dropper float or sink?
float
sink
Pascal's Principle, states the pressure is equal in a confined fluid. Which is supports this best?
The air compressing with huge amounts of pressure applied.
The Cartesian Diver sinking quickly to the bottom of any given container due to gravity.
That no matter where pressure is applied, the Cartesian Diver will move at the same speed.
Why does the Cartesian diver move down when you add force?
adding pressure affects the air
the air goes away
gravity
none of the above are enough of an explanation
The bottle that contains the Cartesian Diver is what kind of system?
closed system
open system
what happens when you open the 2 liter bottle?
nothing
air escapes
water pressure is released
If you add a great enough pressure on air it will...
explode
heat to extreme melting
turn to liquid
it will compress slightly
Which shows the correct pattern of water?
When the water is flowing, where is the least pressure?
A
B
C
The deeper in the ocean, the
greater the dissolved oxygen
greater the presure
lower the pressure
all of these
Which object is more likely to have a greater buoyant force?
