An oil tank has a base of area 2.5 m2 and is filled with oil to a depth of 1.2 m. The density of the
1 answer:
Answer:
D. F = 24000[N]
Explanation:
To be able to calculate the force we must first find the pressure at the bottom of the tank. By means of the following equation:
where:
Ro = density of the liquid = 800 [kg/m³]
g = gravity acceleration = 9.81 [m/s²]
h = elevation = 1.2 [m]
Pressure is defined as the relationship between Force on the area.

Answer:
41°
Explanation:
Kinetic energy at bottom = potential energy at top
½ mv² = mgh
½ v² = gh
h = v²/(2g)
h = (2.4 m/s)² / (2 × 9.8 m/s²)
h = 0.294 m
The pendulum rises to a height of above the bottom. To determine the angle, we need to use trigonometry (see attached diagram).
L − h = L cos θ
cos θ = (L − h) / L
cos θ = (1.2 − 0.294) / 1.2
θ = 41.0°
Rounded to two significant figures, the pendulum makes a maximum angle of 41° with the vertical.
