The container shown is filled with mercury. It is open to atmosphere on the left and closed on the right. What is the pressure at point B, in kPa (kiloPascal)? Pmercury 13,600 kg/m³,1.00 atm = 1.00 x 105 Pa = 100 kPa, and g = 10.0 m/s². Your answer needs to have 3 significant figures, including the negative sign in your answer if needed. Do not include the positive sign if the answer is positive. No unit is needed in your answer, it is already given in the question statement. y (cm) 100- 75 50- 25- 0 C A = B
Please help me: Part (a) If the pressure is measured in compartment C at PC = 1.69 atm and compartment A is open to the atmosphere, what is the height difference H2, in centimeters, in the manometer between B and C? Part (b) What is the pressure in compartment D, in atm? Part (c) If we were to replace compartment C and the manometers around it with a single manometer that went right from compartments B to D, what would the height difference be in this new manometer?

Four objects: A, B, C and D, with different weights, are placed on a rigid horizontal surface. Table 1 shows the pressure exerted by each object on the horizontal surface. Write the letter of the object that indicates the correct pressure. (You must show the calculations.) The results of all problems must be expressed in SI units, unless the problem tells you indicate in other units.
Find surface tension in a soap bubble of 45 mm diameter when the inside pressure is 2.126 N/m² above atmosphere. (ENTER ONLY THE VALUES IN THE BOXES BY REFERRING THE UNIT GIVEN IN BRACKETS) The surface tension of the soap bubble (unit is N/m) =
Find the viscosity coefficient of the glycerine liquid if you know that the density of the liquid is (gm/cm^3) (1.257), where the radius of the sphere is 0.5 cm and the mass of the sphere is 0.002 kg. Note that the speed of the end was (cm/s) 10.
A tank is in the form of inverted right circular cone 8 m across the top and 10 m deep (as shown in the figure). If it is filled to the height 8 m with oil weighing 950 kg/m3, solve the work done in pumping the oil to the top of the tank. Hint: the number of newtons of force necessary to lift an element is the product of kilograms of mass and 9.81, the numbers of meters per second squared in the acceleration due to gravity. Topic: work done in pumping all or part of the liquid
Consider a soap bubble 0.115 m in diameter, with a surface tension of 0.0370 N/m. What is the gauge pressure, in torrs (millimeters of mercury), inside the soap bubble?
:A vertical plate is submerged in water and has the indicated shape. 7 ft 6 ft 5 ft 5 ft Express the hydrostatic force (in ft) against one side of the plate as an integral (let the positive direction be downwards) and evaluate it. (Recall that the weight density of water is 62.5 Ib/ft°.) dx = ft
A meat baster consists of a squeeze bulb attached a plastic tube. When the bulb is squeezed and released, with the open end of the tube under the surface of the basting sauce, the sauce rises in the tube to a distance h, as the drawing shows. Using 1.013 × 105 Pa for the atmospheric pressure and 1260 kg/m³ for the density of the sauce, find the absolute pressure Pg in the bulb when the distance his (a) 0.18 m and (b) 0.10 m.
