A closed cylindrical vessel of diameter 0.65 m is half filled with water and then rotated with its axis horizontal at a speed of 600 rpm. If the water rotates as a forced vortex at the same angular velocity as the vessel and takes the form of a cylinder with a hollow core, what would be the total axial thrust tending to burst the flat ends? Also determine the total axial thrust on the flat ends if the cylinder is completely filled with water and rotated with its axis horizontal at the same speed.

Question
A closed cylindrical vessel of diameter 0.65 m is half filled with water
and then rotated with its axis horizontal at a speed of 600 rpm.
If the
water rotates as a forced vortex at the same angular velocity as the
vessel and takes the form of a cylinder with a hollow core, what would
be the total axial thrust tending to burst the flat ends? Also determine
the total axial thrust on the flat ends if the cylinder is completely filled
with water and rotated with its axis horizontal at the same speed.
