The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem of the air bubble rising from the bottom of a lake, we can use the ideal gas law, which states that for an ideal gas, the relationship between pressure (P), volume (V), and temperature (T) is given by: \[ \frac{P_1 V_1}{T_1} = \frac{P_2 V_2}{T_2} \] ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the Given Values:** - Initial volume of the bubble, \( V_1 = 1.0 \, \text{cm}^3 = 1.0 \times 10^{-6} \, \text{m}^3 \) - Depth of the lake, \( h = 40 \, \text{m} \) - Temperature at the bottom, \( T_1 = 12^\circ C = 12 + 273 = 285 \, \text{K} \) - Temperature at the surface, \( T_2 = 35^\circ C = 35 + 273 = 308 \, \text{K} \) - Atmospheric pressure, \( P_{\text{atm}} = 1.01 \times 10^5 \, \text{Pa} \) - Density of water, \( \rho = 10^3 \, \text{kg/m}^3 \) - Acceleration due to gravity, \( g = 10 \, \text{m/s}^2 \) 2. **Calculate the Pressure at the Bottom of the Lake:** The pressure at the bottom of the lake can be calculated using the formula: \[ P_1 = P_{\text{atm}} + \rho g h \] Substituting the values: \[ P_1 = 1.01 \times 10^5 + (10^3)(10)(40) = 1.01 \times 10^5 + 4 \times 10^5 = 5.01 \times 10^5 \, \text{Pa} \] 3. **Identify the Pressure at the Surface:** At the surface, the pressure is simply the atmospheric pressure: \[ P_2 = P_{\text{atm}} = 1.01 \times 10^5 \, \text{Pa} \] 4. **Use the Ideal Gas Law to Find the Final Volume \( V_2 \):** Rearranging the ideal gas law gives: \[ V_2 = \frac{P_1 V_1 T_2}{P_2 T_1} \] Substituting the known values: \[ V_2 = \frac{(5.01 \times 10^5)(1.0 \times 10^{-6})(308)}{(1.01 \times 10^5)(285)} \] 5. **Calculate \( V_2 \):** Performing the calculations step-by-step: - Calculate the numerator: \[ 5.01 \times 10^5 \times 1.0 \times 10^{-6} \times 308 = 154.708 \, \text{Pa m}^3 \] - Calculate the denominator: \[ 1.01 \times 10^5 \times 285 = 28885.5 \, \text{Pa} \] - Now, divide the numerator by the denominator: \[ V_2 = \frac{154.708}{28885.5} \approx 5.35 \times 10^{-6} \, \text{m}^3 \] 6. **Convert \( V_2 \) to cm³:** Since \( 1 \, \text{m}^3 = 10^6 \, \text{cm}^3 \): \[ V_2 \approx 5.35 \, \text{cm}^3 \] ### Final Answer: The volume of the air bubble when it reaches the surface is approximately **5.35 cm³**.
