Suppose that a liquid has an appreciable compresibility. Its density therefore varies with depth and pressure. The density at the surface is ρ0 Show that the density varies with pressure according to ρ=ρoekp (Where p is gauge pressure at any depth, and k is the compressibillity.) Find p as a function of depth, y.

5. The buoyant force is a consequence of the fact that pressure varies with depth. To understand this, do the following, for a vertical cylindrical object that is submerged in a liquid: a. If the liquid pressure at the top of the cylindrical object is P, write an expression for the liquid pressure at the bottom of the cylinder of length L. b. Write expressions for the magnitude of the force that the liquid exerts at the top of the...

15. The air pressure changes with altitude, diminishing as you go higher. This is why some people, climbing the highest mountains, use supplemental oxygen to help them work hard at extreme elevation. If h is the elevation above sea level measured in thousands of feet, the approximate air pressure is given by the formula P(h) = 14.7 (0.97 h) pounds per square inch. Rounded to the nearest hundred feet, at what elevation will the air presure be 7 pounds per...

The following figure shows an earthen dam with a reservoir depth of 60 feet. Undermeath the dam is a 50-foot thick uniform pervious soil layer that is underlain by impervious soil. Water flows through and beneath the dam and drains into a filter and drain system. The embankment material and underlying soil both have a hydraulic conductivity (k) of 1X10 cm/sec. 2. a. Compute the seepage through the dam (per foot of dam) in f'/day. (Note: 1 foot 30.48 cm,...
