Transcribed Image Text:A fluid of density p is rotating with constant angular velocity w about the central vertical axis of a cylindrical container.
(a) Show that the variation in pressure in the radial direction is given by
dP
= pwr.
dr
(b) If the pressure is at the axis of rotation (r = 0) is Pc, show that the pressure P(r) at any point r is given by
1
P(r) = P. + pw²r?.
(c) Show that the liquid surface is a paraboloid: the horizontal cross section of the liquid is a circle and the vertical
cross section is a parabola given by
w?r2
y =
2g
Note: This is a “problem to prove." Your objective is to construct a proof or rational argument based on principles of
physics and mathematics that connect given or known information to the stated result.
