What is force on the base of a tank of base area `1.5m^(2)` when it is filled with water upto a height of 1m
`(rho_("water")=10^(3)kg//m^(3),P_(0)=10^(5)Pa` and `g=10m//s^(2))`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Absolute pressure at the bottom of the container is
`P=P_(0)+h rho g=10^(5)+1xx10^(3)xx10=1.1xx10^(5)Pa`
Then force on the base is
`F_("base")=PA=(1.1xx10^(5))(1.5)=1.65xx10^(5)N`

The force does water exert on the base of a house tank of base area 1.5m^(2) when it is filled with water up to a height of 1 m is (g=10(m)/(s^(-2)))

A rigid cylindrical container having a cross sectional area of 0.2 m^(2) is filled with water up to a height of 5.0 m . There is a piston of negligible mass over the water. Piston can slide inside the container without friction. When a weight of 2000 kg is placed over the piston, it moves down by 0.25 mm compressing the water. rho= Density of water = 10^(3) kg//m^(2), P_(atm)= Atmospheric pressure =10^(5) N//m^(2) and g=10 m//s^(2) . With this information calculate the speed of sound in water.

A tube of small uniform cross section is used to siphon the water from the vessel. Then choose the correct alternative (s) : (rho_("water") = 10^(3) kg//m^(3), g = 10 m//s^(2), P_(atm) = 10^(5) Pa)
