A pressure in a given tank reads 381 mm of Hg. Determine the equivalent height of a certain fluid in m with sp.gr= 3.35.
Round your answer to 2 decimal places.
The outside diameter of a right circular cylindrical tank is 3,000 mm and its height is 6,000 mm. If the thickness of the tank is ¼ inch, calculate the capacity in gallons.
A cylindrical object 82mm diameter, 165mm height and a mass of 599g, is placed in the tank, which contains oil(48mm thick) and water. Calculate the height(in mm) above the surface of the oil at which it will float if maintained in the vertical position. Take density of oil equals 966 kg/m3.
Answer in two decimal places. Numerical values only. Don't indicate units here, just on the submitted solution.
