If a bubble in sparkling water accelerates upward at the rate ofand has a radius of , what is its mass? Assume that the drag force on the bubble is negligible.
Figure shows an anchored barge that extends across a canal by distance d=30 mand into the water by distance b=12 m. The canal has a widthD=55 m, a water depth H=14 m , and a uniform water flow speed . Assume that the flow around the barge is uniform. As the water passes the bow, the water level undergoes a dramatic dip known as the canal effect. If the dip has depth h=0.80 m , what is the water speed alongside the boat through the vertical cross sections at (a) point a and if the dip has depth h=0.80 m , what is the water speed alongside the boat through the vertical cross sections at (b) point b? The erosion due to the speed increase is a common concern to hydraulic engineers.

An iron casting containing a number of cavities weighs 6000 Nin air and 4000 Nin water. What is the total volume of all the cavities in the casting? The density of iron (that is, a sample with no cavities) is .
Water is pumped steadily out of a flooded basement at a speed of through a uniform hose of radius . The hose passes out through a window above the waterline. What is the power of the pump?
A piston of cross-sectional area a is used in a hydraulic press to exert a small force of magnitude f on the enclosed liquid. A connecting pipe leads to a larger piston of cross-sectional area A (Figure). (a) What force magnitude F will the larger piston sustain without moving? (b) If the piston diameters are and , what force magnitude on the small piston will balance a force on the large piston ?
