To solve the problem of finding the difference in fluid level \( h \) in a rotating U-tube in terms of angular velocity \( \omega \), the radii \( r_1 \) and \( r_2 \), and the fluid density \( \rho \), we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand the System The U-tube is rotating about a vertical axis, which means that the fluid inside the U-tube experiences a centripetal acceleration due to the rotation. The pressure in a fluid at rest increases with depth, but in this case, we need to consider the effect of rotation. ### Step 2: Determine the Centripetal Acceleration The centripetal acceleration \( a_c \) at a distance \( r \) from the axis of rotation is given by: \[ ...
