Work and Heat Transfer

It is generally related to thermal engineering which tells about the use, creation, conversion and transfer of heat energy between the systems. It is also considered that to transfer heat from one source to another, transfer of masses is also required. There are various mechanisms by which, transfer of heat takes place i.e. thermal conduction, convection, radiation or by change of phase. All these mechanisms have their own specific features which sometimes occur simultaneously within the same system.

Please help me with this question: A tank of water has a trap door inclined at an angle θ to the horizontal, as shown in Figure Q4. The door is square, with a length and width of ?, and the hinge of the door is a depth h0 below the surface. The water is stationary and has a density, ρ. a) Find the horiztonal force on the door due to static pressure b) Find the vertical force on the door due to static pressure c) Find the moment on the door hinge due to static pressured) The weight of the door induces a anti-clockwise moment, ??, which acts to stop the door from opening. Find the h0 such that the static pressure is large enough to open the door

QV: a hydraulic press is used to compact powdered samples. The device is made of two interconnected cylindrical chambers filled with oil if density psubscripto anc closed by two pistons. The small chamber on the right has diameter d and the large chamber on the left has diameter 5d. A lever is attached to the piston pushing down on the fluid in the small cylinder. The horizontal lever is hinged on the left, at distance L from the small piston, and a force of magnitude Fsubscript0 is applied vertically down at distance 2L from the hinge (Fig.5). You may assume that the lever and pistons have negligible mass. a. Determine the magnitude of the force Fin that the small piston exerts on the fluid in the small cylinder. Hint: you may consider that the lever is at rest in the horizontal position. b. Determine the pressure change applied to the fluid by the small piston. c. Determine the magnitude Fout of the force that the fluid applies to the large piston.
