A gas holder is sited at the foot of a hill and contains gas at an absolute pressure of 103,000 N/m2 . If the atmospheric pressure is 101,500 N/m², calculate the gauge pressure in head of water. The gas holder supplies gas through a main pipeline whose highest point is 150 m above the gas holder. What is the gauge pressure at this point? Take density of air as 1.21 kg/m3 and density of gas as 0.56 kg/m3 150 m

Ichetucknee Springs is a Florida State Park that is about 30 miles northwest of Gainesville. One of the most popular activities in the park is floating down the Ichetucknee River in an inner tube. Given that the river is about 40 feet wide, 6 miles long, and the water is 72°F, calculate the average velocity of the water (in meters/second) if it takes a tuber 3 hours to float from the launch to the exit. Then, calculate the average volumetric flow rate in (m3/second) of the water, making sure to clearly state all assumptions.
At what velocity (in revolution per minute) should an open cylinder 300mm in diameter and 900mm high containing 45cm of water be rotated about its vertical axis such that the distance between the vertex of the paraboloid, which is located at the bottom of the tank, and the highest point on the new water surface is 90cm? Round off your answer to a whole number.
Water flows through a pipe 25 mm in diameter at a velocity of 6 m/s. Determine whether the flow will be laminar or turbulent assuming that the dynamic viscosity of water is taken as1.30 × 10−3 kg/ms and its mass density as 1000 kg/m3.
