When a diamagnetic object is placed near one pole of a strong magnet, the object is repelled away from the pole by a magnetic force. If the magnet was held vertically and the magnetic force was strong enough, the object could levitate against the gravitational force. In 1997, researchers where able to produce a strong enough magnet that was able to levitate a small frog. They reasoned that since water is a diamagnetic material, with susceptibility X = -8.8 Times 10-6, and that a frog is mostly water, the frog itself would be diamagnetic. They found that the magnetic force on the frog depended on the distance y above the magnet pole, where m is the frog's mass, the density of water rho = 1000 kg / m3, and the permeability of free space mu q = 4pi Times 10-7 T m/A. The magnetic field B(y) above the magnet was measured to be, B(y) = B0e-y2/a with a = 0.00234 m2. In the experiment the frog levitate at a distance y0 = 0.0090 m above the magnet. What was the magnet's strength, B0, in their experiment? The Earth's magnetic field is typically around 45 microteslas, how many times stronger is the magnet?

Awater-filled u-tube manometer is used to measure the pressure inside a tank that contains air. the water level in the u-tube on the side that connects to the tank is 5 ft above the base of the tank. the water level in the other side of the u-tube (which is open to the atmosphere) is 2 ft above the base. determine the pressure within the tank.

Refrigerant-134a flows through a carnot heat pump cycle at 0.5 kg/s. it is known that the maximum absolute temperature in the cycle is 1.1 times the minimum absolute temperature, and the net power input to the cycle is 2.5 kw. if the refrigerant changes from a saturated vapor to a saturated liquid during the heat rejection process, determine the maximum magnitude of the enthalpy of vaporization for this process in kj/kg (with 3 significant figures).
