Question 1

a) Using 𝐴 = 𝜋𝑟 for the circular areas of the piston and plunger, the input force required to
support the 24 500-N weight is
Question 2

The pressure below the sea level can be found from the following equation
P2 = P1 + 𝜌gh,

= 1.013 x 105 Pa + (1030 kg/m3)(9.81 m/s2)(1.1 x 104 m)


= 1.013 x 105 Pa + 1.1103 x 108 Pa
= 1.1113 x 108 Pa

Question :3

Because the liquid is incompressible, the volume displaced in the left cylinder of hydraulic
lift is equal to the volume displaced in the right cylinder
A1v1 = A2v2
(𝜋𝑟 )d1 /t= (𝜋𝑟 )d2 /t
.
d1 = d2 = .
(0.20 m) = 3.2 m

Question 4
Question 5

The mercury, being more dense, will flow from the right container into the left container until the
pressure is equalized.

Then the pressure at the bottom of the left container will be

P = Patm + ρwghw + ρmghmL

the pressure at the bottom of the right container will be

P = Patm + ρmghmR.. By equating the two expression we have ρwghw + ρmg(hmL − hmR) = 0 (1)

Both liquids are incompressible and immiscible so hw = 1.00 m and hmL + hmR = 1.00 m (2)

Question 6 Using the fact that the area of each circular cross-section is 𝜋𝑟

Question 7 The buoyant force that acts on the block is, therefore,
Question 8

he density of the life jacket is

ρj = (1)

Question 9

The height of the cylinder that is in the oil is, therefore,


Question 10 Using Bernoulli’s equation, we have

Question 11

The speed v of the gasoline in the fuel line is related to its mass flow rate, the density ρ of the
gasoline, and the cross-sectional area A of the fuel line by Mass flow rate =v ρA.

The fuel line has a circular cross-section with a radius r. Therefore, its cross sectional area is 𝜋𝑟

Question 12

The absolute pressure in the pipe must be greater than atmospheric pressure. Our solution proceeds in
two steps. We will begin with Bernoulli’s equation. Then we will incorporate the equation of
continuity.

According to Bernoulli’s equation, we have

Using the continuity eqaution, we have
