Question
A Cylindrical Can open at one end
is 20 cm in diameter and 40 cm long. The can welghs 6 N.
The can is carefully put in a large tank of water vertically, with
20 cm
its open end down so that the air is trapped in It (as shown in
given figure). If the air in it can be assumed to undergo
40 cm
isothermal compression, calculate the elevations of the water
surface inside the Can and the top of the Can relative to the
water surface in the tank. The atmospheric pressure is 100 kPa
and the temperature is 20°C.
(Take :
= 9810 N/m³]
