You cast some metal of density p_m in a mold, but you are worried that there might be cavities within the casting. you measure the weight of the casting to be w, and the buoyant force when it is completely surrounded by water to be b. show that v_0=b/(p_water g) – w/(p_m g) is the total volume of any enclosed cavities. if your metal is copper, the casting's weight is 158 n, and the buoyant force is 22 n, what is the total volume of any enclosed cavities in your casting? express your answer using two significant figures. what fraction is this of the total volume of the casting? express your answer using two significant figures.

Air is contained in a variable-load piston-cylinder device equipped with a paddle wheel. initially, air is at 400 kpa and 17°c. the paddle wheel is now turned by an external electric motor until 75 kj/kg of work has been transferred to air. during this process, heat is transferred to maintain a constant air temperature while allowing the gas volume to triple. calculate the required amount of heat transfer in kj/kg.
