The thin-walled, 1-m-diameter tank of Fig. P2.144 is closed at one end and has a mass of 90 kg. The open end of the tank is lowered into the water and held in the position shown by a steel block having a density of 7840 kg/m3. Assume that the air that is trapped in the tank is compressed at a constant temperature. Determine: (a) the reading on the pressure gage at the top of the tank, and (b) the volume of the steel block.

A closed tank is filled with water and has a 4-ft-diameter hemispherical dome as shown in Fig. P2.129. A U-tube manometer is connected to the tank. Determine the vertical force of the water on the dome if the differential manometer reading is 7 ft and the air pressure at the upper end of the manometer is 13.4 psi.
A closed tank is filled with water and has a 4-ft-diameter hemispherical dome as shown in the figure below. A U-tube manometer is connected to the tank. Determine the vertical force of the water on the dome if the differential manometer reading is 7 ft and the air pressure at the upper end of the manometer is 13.6 psi. Setting up the manometer equation, I found the pressure in the closed tank to be 2894.4 lb/ft^2, but when doing the...
A tank contains 500 kg of a liquid whose specufic gravity is 2. Determine the volume of the liquid in the tank. 1.29 A tank contains 500 kg of a liquid whose specific gravity is 2. Determine the volume of the liquid in the tank. 130 Clouds can weigh thousands of pounds due to their liquid water content. Often this content is measured in grams per cubic meter g/m3.Assume that a cumulus cloud occupies a volume of one cubic kilometer,...
2. An oil having density of 833 kg/m3 and a viscosity of 3.3 x 103 Pa.s is pumped from an open tank to a pressurized tank held at 345 k Pa gauge. The oil is pumped from an inlet at the side of the open tank through a line of commercial steel pipe having an inside diameter of 0.07792 m at the rate of 3.494 x 103 m'/s. The length of the straight pipe is 122 m and the pipe...
A U-tube contains liquid of unknown density. An oil of density 770 kg/m³ is poured into one arm of the tube until the oil column is 13.5 cm high. The oil-air interface is then 4.5 cm above the liquid level in the other arm of the U-tube. Find the density of the liquid. A raft is made of 11 logs lashed together. Each is 38.0 cm in diameter and has a length of 7.00 m. How many people (whole number)...
MEE2001/2015 Q5. A thin walled steel cylinder with 10 mm wall thickness and internal diameter of 200 mm (Fig. Q5) is subjected to an internal pressure, p. The steel used for the cylinder has a yield stress of 240 MPa. +F 200 mm Fig. Q5 (a) If a tensile axial force of 1MN is applied to the end plate, show that the maximum internal pressure that can be applied before the cylinder yields according to the Tresca criterion is 16.2...
An enclosed tank containing water of density (r = 1000 kg/m3) has a hole in its side at a distance y1 from the tank’s bottom as shown in figure. The hole is open to atmosphere (Po = 1´105 Pa) , and its diameter is much smaller than the diameter of the tank. The air above the liquid is maintained at a pressure (P = 1.6´105 Pa). Determine the speed of the liquid as it leaves the hole when the liquid’s...
A jet airplane in level flight has a mass of 8.61 x 104 kg, and the two wings have an estimated total area of 88.0 m2 (a) What is the pressure difference between the lower and upper surfaces of the wings? Pa (b) If the speed of air under the wings is 233 m/s, what is the speed of the air over the wings? Assume air has a density of 1.29 kg/m3 m/s (c) Explain why all aircraft have a...
