Title
Water passes through a closed piping system starting at point 1 and exits to the atmosphere at the highestpoint near point 4. The pipe is small at point 1 but then widens out to a constant radius for the rest of the pipe.(A) Rank the velocity of the water
A soda bottle is filled partway with water. A tack is poked into the side to create a hole. The cap is removed fromthe bottle.When the tack is removed, water flows out. As the water level descends, the velocity of the water leaving thehole decreases. Expl
Explain why objects with a density greater than that of water will sink. Prove your explanation with an equation.
A container is filled with water, as shown in the figure. A spigot is opened at the bottom of the container, and waterflows out.Fill in the pressure-energy density bar chart for the fluid-earth system.
A block of cork of cork of density 240 kg/m3 and volume 0.25 m3 floats in water. a. What is the weight of the block? b. What is the weight of the displaced water? c. What is the volume of the block that is above water? d. What is the minimum force needed
The figure shows a pump fitted with a piston and a handle. The pump is connected by tubing to three cylindricalcontainers. The area of each cylinder is given in terms of A (the area of the pump). The heights of the pump andcylinders are given in terms of
Your physics teacher instructs you to determine the density of a rectangular block of unknown material. You areonly allowed to use a ruler and a spring scale that measures newtons of force.(A) Outline the experimental procedure you would use to gather the
A soda bottle is filled partway with water. A tack is poked into the side to create a hole. The cap is removed fromthe bottle.The bottle is refilled to its original level, and the tack is used to plug up the hole. The cap is tightened, and thetack is agai
The figure shows air flowing around an aircraft wing. Using both the continuity equation and Bernoulli’sequation, explain why this wing shape creates an upward force on the wing.
A very tall cylinder with a movable piston is placed in a lake. The piston is pulled up, drawing lake water in andupward, as shown in the figure.Is there a limit to how high water can be drawn up the piston? Write an algebraic expression that supportsyour
