A 5-gal, cylindrical open container with a bottom area of 120 in^2 is filled with water and rests on the floor of an elevator. If cylindrical container is accelerated upward at 3 ft/s^2, what resultant force does the container exert on the floor of the elevator during this acceleration? The weight of the container is negligible. (Note: 1 gal = 231 in^3)
For the tank of water shown below, the radius of the circular surface is R=1.0 m, h=1.0m, and the length of the tank is w=2.0 m. Determine (1) the correct expression of the area magnitude whose volume weight is equivalent to the vertical force exerted on the whole curved surfaces_________
A gate rotates at point A and releases water when the water's depth, d, exceeds a certain value. The gate's width (perpendicular to the image) is b = 2.95 ft, the water's depth is d = 4.82 ft, and point A is located at h = 2.41 ft. a) What is F, the magnitude of the horizontal force exerted on the gate by the water? The water's specific weight is γw=62.4lb/ft3. b) What are Ax and Bx, the horizontal reaction forces at points A and B that act on the gate from Part A. c) What is dmax, the water's maximum depth before the pressure causes the gate from part A to open?
A hydraulic press is composed of two cylindrical reservoirs of R1 and R2 rays.The plungers in this press are extremely light and can move virtually frictionless and perfectly adjusted to their respective cylinders. The fluid that fills the press reservoirs is low density and can be considered incompressible. When in balance, the F2 force supported by the larger plunger is 100 times higher than the F1 force supported by the smaller one. Thus, the R2 / R1 ratio between the rays of the emboli, is worth approximately:a) 100b) 50c) 10d) 1000e) 200
