An unknown immiscible liquid seeps into the bottom of an open oil tank. Some measurements indicate that the depth of the unknown
ira [324]

Answer:

The specific gravity of the unkown liquid is 15.

Explanation:

Gauge pressure, at the bottom of the tank in this case, can be calculated from

P_{bot}=\gamma_{oil}h_1 + \gamma_{unk}h_2,

where h_1 and h_2 are the height of the column of oil and the unkown liquid, respectively. Writing for \gamma_{unk}, we have

\gamma_{unk} = \frac{P_{bot} - \gamma_{oil}h_1}{h_2} = \frac{65\frac{kN}{m^2} - 8.5\frac{kN}{m^3}\times 5m}{1.5m} = \mathbf{15 \frac{kN}{m^3}}.

Relative to water, the unknow liquid specific weight is 15 times bigger, therefore this is its specific gravity as well.

The mass of the uniform cantilever is 1100 kg. Determine the force on the beam at A. Determine the force on the beam at B. Use C
Mashcka [7]

Answer:

Force A=-−2,697.75 N

Force B=13, 488.75 N

Explanation:

Taking moments at point A, the sum of clockwise and anticlockwise moments equal to zero.

25 mg-20Fb=0

25*1100g=20Fb

Fb=25*1100g/20=1375g

Taking g as 9.81 then Fb=1375*9.81=13,488.75 N

The sum of upward and downward forces are same hence Fa=1100g-1375g=-275g

-275*9.81=−2,697.75. Therefore, force A pulls downwards

Note that the centre of gravity is taken to be half the whole length hence half of 50 is 25 m because center of gravity is always at the middle

Alinara [238K]

Answer:

Then the difference of weight between the two cars are:

Δw = 14210 - 5292 = 8918 N

Explanation:

An object's weigh due to the gravitational attraction force of the earth is:

w = mg

            Where: m is the object's mass

                         g is the  gravitational acceleration in the surface earth

                         g = 9.8 m/s2

The the ultralight car's weight is:

w_{uc} = (540)(9.8)

w_{uc} = 5292 N

And the Honda Accord's weight is:

w_{HA} = (1450)(9.8)

w_{HA} = 14210 N

Then the difference of weight between the two cars are:

Δw = 14210 - 5292 = 8918 N

Water (rhoH20 = 1000.0 kg/m3 ) flows through a garden hose that goes up a step 20.0 cm high. The cross-sectional area of the hos
Soloha48 [4]

Answer:

 P₂ = 138.88 10³ Pa

Explanation:

This is a problem of fluid mechanics, we must use the continuity and Bernoulli equation

Let's start by looking for the top speed

        Q = A₁ v₁ = A₂ v₂

We will use index 1 for the lower part and index 2 for the upper part, let's look for the speed in the upper part (v2)

         v₂ = A₁ / A₂ v₁

They indicate that A₂ = ½ A₁ and give the speed at the bottom (v₁ = 1.20 m/s)

         v₂ = 2  1.20

         v₂ = 2.40 m / s

Now let's write the Bernoulli equation

        P₁ + ½ ρ v₁² + ρ g y₁ = P2 + ½ ρ v₂² + ρ g y₂

Let's clear the pressure at point 2

       P₂ = P₁ + ½ ρ (v₁² - v₂²) + ρ g (y₁-y₂)

we put our reference system at the lowest point

        y₁ - y₂ = -20 cm

Let's calculate

       P₂ = 143 10³ + ½ 1000 (1.20² - 2.40²) + 1000 9.8 (-0.200)

       P₂ = 143 103 - 2,160 103 - 1,960 103

       P₂ = 138.88 10³ Pa
