The tank shown in Fig. (1) is divided into two independent chambers. Air pressure is present in both sections. A manometer measures the difference between these pressures. A sphere oi wood (s. = 0.6) is fastened into the wall as shown. a- Compute the magnitude of the resultant of horizontal forces on the sphere. b- Compute the magnitude of the resultant of vertical forces on the sphere. Note : volume of sphere is (n D^3/ 6)
1. In the set-up shown, a rectangular gate, ABCD, is used to store layers of oil and water. The
weight of the gate is 4 kN and the force exerted by the stopper on the gate is measured to
be 80 kN.
Sketch the pressure diagram on the rectangular gate. No need to put the
expressions for pressures.
Draw the free body diagram of the rectangular gate. Label all external forces.
Calculate the moment done by the resultant hydrostatic force about the hinge.
