A house is on a hill 10 meters above the base of a 50 meter tall water tower. Calculate the gauge pressure at a tap on the groun

d floor of the house.
Density of water (rho) = 1000 kg/m^3

Acceleration of gravity (g) = 9.8 m/sec^2

Pressure of a fluid column ΔP=ρgΔh

SI units for pressure Pascal = 1 N/m^2 = 1 kg /ms^2


A) 98,000 N/M^2

B) 490,000 N/m^2

C) 588,000 N.m^2

D) 392,000 N/m^2

Answer:

Explanation:

Given: Pressure of a fluid column ΔP=ρgΔh

Density of water (ρ) = 1000 kg/m^3

Acceleration of gravity (g) = 9.8 m/sec^2

Δh = difference in height / elevation of water tower and tap

= 50 - 10

= 40

Substitute back into equation:

Pressure = 1000*9.8*40

= 392000 N/m^2

The answer is D.

Answer:

Explanation:

Pressure of a fluid column ΔP=ρgΔh

delta h = 50-10 = 40

P = 1000x9.8x40

= 392000

ans is D

A single fixed pulley is used to lift a load of 400N by the application of an effort of 480N in 10s through a vertical height of
Allushta [10]

Answer:

(a) the velocity ratio of the machine (V.R) = 1

(b) The mechanical advantage of the machine (M.A) = 0.833

(c) The efficiency of the machine (E) = 83.3 %

Explanation:

Given;

load lifted by the pulley, L = 400 N

effort applied in lifting the, E = 480 N

distance moved by the effort, d = 5 m

(a) the velocity ratio of the machine (V.R);

since the effort applied moved downwards through a distance of d, the load will also move upwards through an equal distance 'd'.

V.R = distance moved by effort / distance moved by the load

V.R = 5/5 = 1

(b) The mechanical advantage of the machine (M.A);

M.A = L/E

M.A = 400 / 480

M.A = 0.833

(c) The efficiency of the machine (E);

E = \frac{M.A}{V.R} \times 100\%\\\\E = 0.833 \ \times \ 100\%\\\\ E = 83.3 \ \%
