- The bottom quarter of a vertical cylindrical tank of total height 0.4 m and diameter 0.3 is filled with a liquid (SG>1, like glycerin) and the ret with water. The tank is now rotated about its vertical axis at constant angular speed w. Determine the value of angular speed in rad/s when point P on the axis at the liquid-liquid interface touches the bottom of the tank.arrow_forwardIn the manometer above, point 2 is open and is exposed to the surroundings. Also, the water tank is pressurized by air from the inside as shown in the figure. If h1 = 22cm, h2 = 0.35m, and h3 = 47cm, and assuming that the acceleration due to gravity is 9.81m/s2, (density of water = 1011 g/L, density of oil = 770 kg/m3, density of mercury has a density of 13.75 kg/dm3) A) Calculate the gauge pressure (in torr) of the air inside the tank.

EXAMPLE 6-3 The Force to Hold a Reversing Elbow in Place The deflector elbow in Example 6-2 is replaced by a reversing elbow such that the fluid makes a 180° U-turn before it is discharged, as shown in Fig. 6-21. The elevation difference between the centers of the inlet and the exit sections is still 0.3 m. Determine the anchoring force needed to hold the elbow in place. SOLUTION The inlet and the outlet velocities and the pressure at the inlet of the elbow remain the same, but the vertical component of the anchoring force at the connection of the elbow to the pipe is zero in this case (FR = 0) since there is no other force or momentum flux in the vertical direction (we are neglecting the weight of the elbow and the water). The horizontal com- ponent of the anchoring force is determined from the momentum equation written in the x-direction. Noting that the outlet…arrow_forward
