A vertical cylindrical tank has a diameter of in and a height of 2.50 m. The tank, open at the top and is 3/5 full, is rotated about its vertical axis at a constant angular speed. a) At what maximum angular speed must the tank be rotated so that the contents do not spill? b) At what minimum angular speed must the tank be rotated so that the bottom of the tank becomes exposed? c) At what angular speed must the tank be rotated so that the diameter of the exposed surface at the bottom of tank is 40 cm?
