[FREE SOLUTION] | 91Ó°ÊÓ

91Ó°ÊÓ

Three liquids that will not mix are poured into a cylindrical container. The volumes and densities of the liquids are0.50L, 2.6 g/cm3; 0.25 L, 1.0 g/cm3; and0.40 L, 0.80 g/cm3 . What is the force on the bottom of the container due to these liquids? One liter , 1L=1000 cm3. (Ignore the contribution due to the atmosphere.)

Short Answer

Expert verified

The force on the bottom of the container due to three liquids is 18.3 N.

Step by step solution

01

The given data

i) Volume and density of liquid 1 is V1=0.50L,ÒÏ1=2.6g/cm3

ii) Volume and density of liquid 2 is V2=0.50L,ÒÏ2=1.0g/cm3

iii) Volume and density of liquid 3 isV3=0.40L,ÒÏ3=0.80g/cm3

02

Understanding the concept of density and weight

We can use the formula for force (weight) in terms of density and volume to find the forces on three liquids separately. Then adding them, we can get the force on the bottom of the container due to three liquids.

Formula:

Weight of a body in terms of force,

W=mg=ÒÏVg,

where, (i)

ÒÏ=densityofmaterial,V=volumeofmaterialmg=accelerationofgravity9.8m/s2or980cm/s2

Calculation of force (weight) on the bottom of the container

Force on the bottom of the container due to liquids:

We know that1L=1000cm3

For first liquid, using equation (i)

role="math" localid="1657193879159" W1=2.6×0.50×1000×980=1.27×106g·cm/s2=1.27×106dyne=12.7N∵1N=105dyne

Similarly, we can find the weight of second liquid using equation (i)

role="math" localid="1657194157414" W2=0.25×1.0×1000×980=2.45×105g·cm/s2=2.45×105dyne=2.45N∵1N=105dyne

For third liquid, using equation (i) we have

W3=0.40×0.80×1000×980=3.14×105g·cm/s2=3.14×105dyne=3.14N∵1N=105dyne

Total force on the bottom of the cylinder is

F=W1+W2+W3=12.7+2.45+3.14=18.29N≈18.3N

Therefore, the force on the bottom of the container due to three liquids is18.3N

Figure 14-30 shows a modified U-tube: the right arm is shorter than the left arm. The open end of the right arm is height d=10.0cmabove the laboratory bench. The radius throughout the tube is 1.50cm. Water is gradually poured into the open end of the left arm until the water begins to flow out the open end of the right arm. Then a liquid of density 0.80g/cm3is gradually added to the left arm until its height in that arm is8.0cm(it does not mix with the water). How much water flows out of the right arm?

Question: To suck lemonade of density 1000 kg/m3up a straw to a maximum height of 4.0 cm, what minimum gauge pressure (in atmospheres) must you produce in your lungs?

A garden hose with an internal diameter of 1.9cmis connected to a (stationary) lawn sprinkler that consists merely of a container with 24holes, each 0.13cmin diameter. If the water in the hose has a speed of 0.91m/s, at what speed does it leave the sprinkler holes?

A liquid of density 900kg/m3 flows through a horizontal pipe that has a cross-sectional area of 1.90×10-2m2 in region A and a cross-sectional area of 9.50×10.2m2 in region B. The pressure difference between the two regions is 7.20×103Pa.

(a) What is the volume flow rate?

(b) What is the mass flow rate?

We have three containers with different liquids. The gauge pressure pgversus depth his plotted in Fig. 14-28 for the liquids. In each container, we will fully submerge a rigid plastic bead. Rank the plots according to the magnitude of the buoyant force on the bead, greatest first.
