dlinn [17]

Answer:

h_{max} = 51.8 cm

Explanation:

given data:

height of tank = 60cm

diameter of tank =40cm

accelration = 4 m/s2

suppose x- axis - direction of motion

z -axis - vertical direction

\theta = water surface angle with horizontal surface

a_x =accelration in x direction

a_z =accelration in z direction

slope in xz plane is

tan\theta = \frac{a_x}{g +a_z}

tan\theta = \frac{4}{9.81+0}

tan\theta =0.4077

the maximum height of water surface at mid of inclination is

\Delta h = \frac{d}{2} tan\theta

            =\frac{0.4}{2}0.4077

\Delta h  0.082 cm

the maximu height of wwater to avoid spilling is

h_{max} = h_{tank} -\Delta h

            = 60 - 8.2

h_{max} = 51.8 cm

the height requird if no spill water is h_{max} = 51.8 cm

Answer:

porosity = 0.07 or 7%

dry bulk density = 3.25g/cm3]

water content =

Explanation:

bulk density = dry Mass / volume of  sample

dry mass = 0.490kg = 490g

volume = πr2h = 3.142 * 2 *2 *12 = 150.8cm3

density = 490/150.8 = 3.25g/cm3

porosity = \frac{wet mass - dry mass }{wet mass} = \frac{0.525 - 0.49}{0.525} = 0.07 or 7%

water content =  \frac{wet mass - dry mass}{wet mass} = 7%
