A large 10,000 L aquarium is supported by four wood posts (Douglas fir) at the corners. Each post has a square 4.0 cm * 4.0 cm cross-section and is 80 cm tall. By how much is each post compressed by the weight of the aquarium?
A long horizontal tube has a square cross-section with sides of width .
A fluid moves through the tube with speed . The tube then changes to a circular cross-section with a diameter. What is the fluid's speed in the circular part of the tube?
One day when you come into physics lab you find several plastic hemispheres floating like boats in a tank of fresh water. Each lab group is challenged to determine the heaviest rock that can be placed in the bottom of a plastic boat without sinking it. You get one try. Sinking the boat gets you no points, and the maximum number of points goes to the group that can place the heaviest rock without sinking. You begin by measuring one of the hemispheres, finding that it has a mass and a diameter of . What is the mass of the heaviest rock that, in perfectly still water, won't sink the plastic boat?
