Question Number 13695 by Joel577 last updated on 22/May/17
Volume of a bubble is 3 times larger  when it reaches the surface from the bottom  of the lake.  What is the depth of the lake?    (A) 10 m             (D) 40 m  (B) 20 m             (E) 50 m  (C) 30 m

I use  p_(surface)  = 1 atm  p_(bottom)  . V_(bottom)  = p_(surface)  . V_(surface)   p_(bottom)  . V = 1 . 3V  p_(bottom)  = 3 atm    And now I′m stuck
$$\mathrm{I}\:\mathrm{use}\:\:{p}_{\mathrm{surface}} \:=\:\mathrm{1}\:\mathrm{atm} \\ $$$${p}_{\mathrm{bottom}} \:.\:{V}_{\mathrm{bottom}} \:=\:{p}_{\mathrm{surface}} \:.\:{V}_{\mathrm{surface}} \\ $$$${p}_{\mathrm{bottom}} \:.\:{V}\:=\:\mathrm{1}\:.\:\mathrm{3}{V} \\ $$$${p}_{\mathrm{bottom}} \:=\:\mathrm{3}\:\mathrm{atm} \\ $$$$ \\ $$$$\mathrm{And}\:\mathrm{now}\:\mathrm{I}'\mathrm{m}\:\mathrm{stuck} \\ $$

p_(bottom)  −p_(surface)  = 3−1 = 2 atm  =20m water depth
$${p}_{\mathrm{bottom}} \:−{p}_{\mathrm{surface}} \:=\:\mathrm{3}−\mathrm{1}\:=\:\mathrm{2}\:\mathrm{atm} \\ $$$$=\mathrm{20}{m}\:{water}\:{depth} \\ $$

P_0 V_f =(P_0 +ρgh)V_i   h=((P_0 ((V_f /V_i )−1))/(ρg))        and as (V_f /V_i )=3   h =((2P_0 )/(ρg)) =((2(1.013×10^5 N/m^2 ))/((1000kg/m^3 )(9.806m/s^2 )))   h=((202.6)/(9.8))m ≈((29)/(1.4))m ≈ 20m .
$${P}_{\mathrm{0}} {V}_{{f}} =\left({P}_{\mathrm{0}} +\rho{gh}\right){V}_{{i}} \\ $$$${h}=\frac{{P}_{\mathrm{0}} \left(\frac{{V}_{{f}} }{{V}_{{i}} }−\mathrm{1}\right)}{\rho{g}}\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:{and}\:{as}\:\frac{{V}_{{f}} }{{V}_{{i}} }=\mathrm{3} \\ $$$$\:{h}\:=\frac{\mathrm{2}{P}_{\mathrm{0}} }{\rho{g}}\:=\frac{\mathrm{2}\left(\mathrm{1}.\mathrm{013}×\mathrm{10}^{\mathrm{5}} {N}/{m}^{\mathrm{2}} \right)}{\left(\mathrm{1000}{kg}/{m}^{\mathrm{3}} \right)\left(\mathrm{9}.\mathrm{806}{m}/{s}^{\mathrm{2}} \right)} \\ $$$$\:{h}=\frac{\mathrm{202}.\mathrm{6}}{\mathrm{9}.\mathrm{8}}{m}\:\approx\frac{\mathrm{29}}{\mathrm{1}.\mathrm{4}}{m}\:\approx\:\mathrm{20}{m}\:. \\ $$
