A town has a 1.4-million-gallon storage capacity water tower. If the density of water is 62.4 lb/ft3 and local acceleration of gravity is 32.1 ft/s2, what is the force, in lbf, the structural base must provide to support the water in the tower?
If the mass of an object is 10 lbm, what is its weight, in lbf, at a location where g = 32.0 ft/s2 ?
Find:What is the volume occupied by the ammonia, in ft^3?
Ignoring friction, determine the force required, in lbf, by mechanical attachments, such as stops, to hold the piston in place. Assume the force acts vertically downwards.
