Water towers store water above the level of consumers for times of heavy use, eliminating need for high-speed pumps. How high above a user must the water level be to create a gauge pressure of 3.00105 N/m2?
An oil gusher shoots crude 25.0 m the through a pipe with a 0.100-m diameter. Neglecting resistance but not resistance of the pipe, and assuming laminar flow, calculate pressure at be entrance of be 50.0-m-Iong vertical pipe. Take of the oil to be 900 kg/m3 and its viscosity to be 100(N/m2) s (or 1.00 Pa s). Note that you must take into account the pressure due to 50.0-m column of oil in pipe.
Referring to Figure 14.20, prove that the buoyant force on be cylinder is equal to the weight of the fluid displaced (Archimedes' principle). You may assume that be buoyant force is F2F1 and that the ends of be cylinder have equal areas A. Note Eat be volume of be cylinder (and that of be fluid displaces) equals (h2h1)A .
