A hydraulic piston has two surfaces which can move when a force is applied to them. On the left side, the piston surface is circular with a cross-sectional radius of 10 cm and on the right side it is square with a side of length 30 cm. A. If I push on the left side with 100 N of force, what total force will be exerted by the fluid in the piston on the right side? B. If I displace the piston on the left side by 18 cm, how far will the right surface move?

A scientist is calculating the density of an ore sample. The scien- tist measures that the ore sample weighs 22.4 N in air. When the sample is suspended by a thin light cord and totally immersed in water, the tension in the cord is 14.2 N. What is the density of the ore sample that the scientist calculates. You can assume that any buoyant force from air is negligible.
On another planet that you are exploring, a large tank is open to the atmosphere and contains ethanol. A horizontal pipe of cross-sectional area 7.0×10−4m27.0×10−4m2 has one end inserted into the tank just above the bottom of the tank. The other end of the pipe is open to the atmosphere. The viscosity of the ethanol can be neglected. You measure the volume flow rate of the ethanol from the tank as a function of the depth hh of the ethanol in the tank. If you graph the volume flow rate squared as a function of hh, your data lie close to a straight line that has slope 2.09×10−5m5/s22.09×10−5m5/s2. What is the value of gg, the acceleration of a free-falling object at the surface of the planet? Express your answer with the appropriate units.

A container with water is pressurized and attached to a hose. The pressure inside the container, P, is set so that when the end of the tube is 4.5 meters above the water level in the container is ejected at 3.5 m/s. The reservoir in the container is large enough that you can ignore the change in height of the water in the container. What is the pressure P in atmospheres?
A Venturi meter is a device for measuring the speed of a fluid within a pipe. The drawing shows a gas flowing at speed v₂ through a horizontal section of pipe whose cross- sectional area is A₂ = 0.0619 m². The gas has a density of p = 1.30 kg/m³. The Venturi meter has a cross-sectional area of A₁ = 0.0393 m² and has been substituted for a section of the larger pipe. The pressure difference between the two sections is P₂ - P₁ = 90.8 Pa.

A water tower is a familiar sight in many towns. The purpose of such a tower is to provide storage capacity and to provide sufficient pressure in the pipes that deliver the water to customers. The drawing shows a spherical reservoir that contains 3.09 x 10 kg of water when full. The reservoir is vented to the atmosphere at the top. For a full reservoir, find the gauge pressure that the water has at the faucet in (a) house A and (b) house B. Ignore the diameter of the delivery pipes.
