Chapter 5, Problem 5.145RP
A tank is divided into two sections by a 1 × 1-m square gate that is hinged at A. A couple with a magnitude of 490 N · m is required for the gate to rotate. If one side of the tank is filled with water at the rate of 0.1 m3/min and the other side is filled simultaneously with methyl alcohol (density ρma = 789 kg/m3) at the rate of 0.2 m3 min, determine at what time and in which direction the gate will rotate.

A 10-m high cylindrical container with a radius of 2 m is filled with oil and water. If the lower 2.5-m of the tank is water with a density of ρ = 1000 kg/m3 while the rest of the tank is filled with oil with a density of ρ = 800 kg/m3, determine the pressure difference, in kPa, between the top and bottom of the cylinder. Assume that the gravity is 9.81 m/s2.
A spherical balloon containing Oxygen (initially at sea level) has a radius of 8 inches. If the uniform density of air is 0.07498lb/ft3 and that the pressure at sea level is 14.7psia, determine the new radius (inch) of the balloon if it has been brought above sea level by 6000ft.
