Consider a tank of rectangular cross-section partially filled with a liquid placed on an inclined surface, as shown in the figure. When frictional effects are negligible, show that the slope of the liquid surface will be the same as the slope of the inclined surface when the tank is released. What can you say about the slope of the free surface when the friction is significant

An open barge has the dimensions shown in the figure. If the barge is made out of 5.5-cm-thick steel plate on each of its four sides and its bottom, what mass of coal can the barge carry in freshwater without sinking? Is there enough room in the barge to hold this amount of coal? (The density of coal is about 1500 kg/m3.)
Freshwater and seawater flowing in parallel horizontal pipelines are connected to each other by a double U-tube manometer, as shown. Determine the pressure difference between the two pipelines. Take the density of seawater at that location to be ? = 1035 kg/m3. Can the air column be ignored in the analysis?
Milk with a density of 1020 kg/m3 is transported on a level road in a 9-m-long, 3-m-diameter cylindrical tanker. The tanker is completely filled with milk (no air space), and it accelerates at 4 m/s2. If the minimum pressure in the tanker is 100 kPa, determine the maximum pressure difference and the location of the maximum pressure.
Under what conditions can a moving body of fluid be treated as a rigid body?
A capillary tube is immersed vertically in a water container. Knowing that water starts to evaporate when the pressure drops below 3.5 kPa, determine the maximum capillary rise and tube diameter for this maximum-rise case. Take the contact angle at the inner wall of the tube to be 6° and the surface tension to be 1.00 N/m. Find the tube diameter for the maximum rise (in μm.)
Consider a U-tube whose arms are open to the atmosphere. Now water is poured into the U-tube from one arm, and light oil (? = 790 kg/m3) from the other. One arm contains 70-cm-high water, while the other arm contains both fluids with an oil-to-water height ratio of 6. Determine the height of each fluid in that arm.
Consider a U-tube whose arms are open to the atmosphere. Now equal volume of water and light oil (ρ=790 kg/m3) are poured from different arms. A person blows from the oil side of the U-tube until the contact surface of the two fluids moves to the bottom of the U-tube, and thus the liquid levels in the two arms are the same. If the fluid height in each arm is 102 cm, determine the gage pressure the person exerts on the oil by blowing.
Knowing that the vertical component of force acting on a curved surface is given by dFV = PdAx, show that the net vertical force on a sphere submerged at a depth h in a liquid is equal to the buoyancy force on the same sphere.
The maximum blood pressure in the upper arm of a healthy person is about 120 mmHg. If a vertical tube open to the atmosphere is connected to the vein in the arm of the person, determine how high the blood will rise in the tube. Take the density of the blood to be 1040 kg/m3.
A u_tube whose arms are open to the atmosphere. Now equal volumes of water and light oil. (density =49.4kg/m^3)are poured from different arms. A person blows from the oil side of the u_tube until the contact surface of the two fluid moves to the bottom u_tube, and thus the liquid levels in the two arms are the same .if the fluid height in each arm is 30in,Determine the gauge pressure the person exerts on the oil by blowing.
Water from a reservoir is raised in a vertical tube of internal diameter D = 30 cm under the influence of the pulling force F of a piston. Determine the force needed to raise the water to a height of h = 1.5 m above the free surface. What would your response be for h = 3 m? Also, taking the atmospheric pressure to be 96 kPa, plot the absolute water pressure at the piston face as h varies from 0 to 3 m.
In the experiment, Hydrostatic Pressure, explain how do you determine the hydrostatic force due to water acting partially and fully submerged surface?
