2. A tank in the shape of an inverted cone has a height of 10 meters and a base radius of 5 meters and is filled with water to a depth of 6 meters. Determine the amount of work needed to pump all of the water to the top of the tank. Assume that the density of the water is 1000 kg/m³ and gravity g10 m/s². Hint: Calculate the work done to lift the small rectangle all he way to the top and convert to an integral to obtain the total work 5 m Similar triangles give Ti %3D %3D 10 The force is given by 10 m 6 m F = [density] · [volume] · [gravity] And the volume is V T (radius)“ - height.
Fluid Pressure
The term fluid pressure is coined as, the measurement of the force per unit area of a given surface of a closed container. It is a branch of physics that helps to study the properties of fluid under various conditions of force.
Gauge Pressure
Pressure is the physical force acting per unit area on a body; the applied force is perpendicular to the surface of the object per unit area. The air around us at sea level exerts a pressure (atmospheric pressure) of about 14.7 psi but this doesn’t seem to bother anyone as the bodily fluids are constantly pushing outwards with the same force but if one swims down into the ocean a few feet below the surface one can notice the difference, there is increased pressure on the eardrum, this is due to an increase in hydrostatic pressure.
