- A horizontal pipe (Venturi Tube) 10.0 cm in diameter has a smooth reduction to a pipe 5.00 cm in diameter. If the pressure of the water in the larger pipe is 5.0 x 105 Pa and the pressure in the smaller pipe is 4.0 x 104 Pa, at what rate does water flow through the pipes. Hint: Use the continuity equation to express one speed in terms of the another.arrow_forward1. The U-tube in the figure contains two liquids in static equilibrium: Water of density pw = 998 kg/m³ is in the right arm, and oil of unknown density px is in the left. Measurement gives l = 135 mm and d the density of oil. = 12.3 mm. What is Oil Water- Interfacearrow_forwardYou come across an open container that is filled with two liquids. Since the two liquids have different densities, there is a distinct separation between them. Water, which has a density of ?w=1.00×103 kg/m3, fills the lower portion of the container to a depth of 0.215 m. The fluid that is floating on top of the water is 0.307 m deep. If the absolute pressure on the bottom of the container is 1.049×105 Pa, what is the density, ?l, of the unknown fluid? The acceleration due to gravity is ?=9.81 m/s2 and atmospheric pressure is ?0=1.013×105 Pa.arrow_forward

- A raft has dimensions 7.0 m x 7.0 m with a thickness of 1.0 m and made of material with average density 650 kg/m3. a. When floating in water, what percentage of the volume is under water? b. What is the pressure underneath the raft? c. How heavy of a load is necessary to cause the raft to be 80% submerged in water? d. If the raft is made with a different material of lower density and 80% of it is still submerged, how if at all would your answers to (a), (b) and (c) change? e. , explain how, if at all, the answer to (b) is related to the buoyant force. f. Imagine that the load increases enough to fully submerge and then sinks the raft to the bottom of the lake. How, if at all, does the buoyant force vary during this process?arrow_forwardThe container shown is filled with a mystery liquid with density 15.1 ×103 kg/m³. It is open to atmosphere on the left and closed on the right. What is the pressure at point A, in kPa (kiloPascal)? 1.0 atm = 1.00 x 105 Pa = 100 kPa, and g = 10.0 m/s². Your answer needs to have 3 significant figures, including the negative sign in your answer if needed. Do not include the positive sign if the answer is positive.
