The pressure inside a bottle of champagne is 4.5 atm higher than the air pressure outside. The neck of the bottle has an inner radius of 1.1 cm. What is the frictional force on the cork due to the neck of the bottle?

This is an easy one.

f = ma = F - C - A = 0; where f is the net force on the cork of mass m and acceleration a = 0 since the cork is stuck in the neck. F is the force on the cork from the bottle, C is the cork friction force, and A is the force on the cork from outside the bottle.

f = P pi r^2 - C - Patm pi r^2 = 0; so that (P - Patm)pi r^2 = C; where C is the cork friction force, P = Patm + 4.5 atm the pressure in the bottle acting on a cork area of a = pi r^2. Pa = F and Patm = 1.0 atm ambient pressure.

From (P - Patm)pi r^2 = C we see that C = 4.5 atm * pi (1.1 X 10^-2 m)^2; so that the cork friction force = C = 4.5 atm * pi * 1.21 X 10^-4 m^2. Find what 1 atm is in Newtons/m^2 and work this equation with the Newton/m^2 instead of atm. That will give you C, the cork friction, in Newtons.

The physics lesson here is that the cork needs to add a force equivalent to the difference of the internal force on the cork and the external force on the cork. That results because there is no net force on the cork when it is static.

at least enough to withstand 1 atm/ square cm of pressure. The frictional force itself cannot be determined without the coefficient of friction between cork and glass and the size and shape of the neck of the bottle the cork fits into.

try changing the oil stress sending unit first. this is undesirable and sending a vulnerable sign to the warning gentle controller. . If the above does no longer help, the in all hazard reason is that the bearings are worn to a element that oil is escaping too with out put off previous the clearance between the bearing and crank shaft. be conscious that this is a demonstration of the two extreme mileage or poor maintenance, or the two. . in case you may desire to shop this vehicle, change over to 30 or 40 wt motor oil -do no longer use multi-grade which includes 10-30 . you may desire to confirm an advance in oil stress after doing this .

the frictional force is equal to the product of the pressure difference and the cross section, e.g.,

f = 4.5*3.14*(1.1)**2

p=f/A
first convert atm to pascals
then use pi*r^@ to get area and convert to m^2
then f = AxP
