A water tower is a familiar sight in many towns. The purpose of such a tower is to provide storage capacity and to provide sufficient pressure in the pipes that deliver the water to customers. The drawing shows a spherical reservoir that contains 6.54 x 105 kg of water when full. The reservoir is vented to the atmosphere at the top. For a full reservoir, find the gauge pressure that the water has at the faucet in (a) house A and (b) house B. Ignore the diameter of the delivery pipes.

A large tub is filled with water, and it is found that the pressure at the bottom is 1) 1.12 x 105 Pa. The same tub is then filled with mercury. What is the new pressure at the bottom of the tub?
A teenager in a large pool at a certain depth D, equipped with a full scuba gear, takes enough air from his tank to fully expand his lungs then swam up to the surface. During the ascent, the teenager failed to exhale which is not advisable. The difference between the external pressure and the acquired pressure in his lungs is 8.7 kPa. Determine the depth D.

On another planet that you are exploring, a large tank is open to the atmosphere and contains ethanol. A horizontal pipe of cross-sectional area 7.0×10−4m27.0×10−4m2 has one end inserted into the tank just above the bottom of the tank. The other end of the pipe is open to the atmosphere. The viscosity of the ethanol can be neglected. You measure the volume flow rate of the ethanol from the tank as a function of the depth hh of the ethanol in the tank. If you graph the volume flow rate squared as a function of hh, your data lie close to a straight line that has slope 2.09×10−5m5/s22.09×10−5m5/s2. What is the value of gg, the acceleration of a free-falling object at the surface of the planet? Express your answer with the appropriate units.
A water tower is a familiar sight in many towns. The purpose of such a tower is to provide storage capacity and to provide sufficient pressure in the pipes that deliver the water to customers.

A container with water is pressurized and attached to a hose. The pressure inside the container, P, is set so that when the end of the tube is 4.5 meters above the water level in the container is ejected at 3.5 m/s. The reservoir in the container is large enough that you can ignore the change in height of the water in the container. What is the pressure P in atmospheres?
While taking a shower, you notice that the shower head is made up of 36 small round openings, each with a radius of 2.00 mm. You also determine that it takes 2.00 s for the shower to completely fi a 1.00-liter container you hold in the water stream. The water for the shower is pumped by a pump that is 5.60 m below the level of the shower head. The pump maintains an absolute pressure of 1.50 atm. Use g = 10 m/s?, and assume that 1 atmosphere is 1.0 x 105 Pa. (a) At what speed does the water emerge from the shower head? 1.105 m/s (b) What is the speed of the water in the pipe connected to the pump? m/s (c) What is the cross-sectional area of the pipe connected to the pump? m2
A Venturi meter is a device for measuring the speed of a fluid within a pipe. The drawing shows a gas flowing at speed v₂ through a horizontal section of pipe whose cross- sectional area is A₂ = 0.0619 m². The gas has a density of p = 1.30 kg/m³. The Venturi meter has a cross-sectional area of A₁ = 0.0393 m² and has been substituted for a section of the larger pipe. The pressure difference between the two sections is P₂ - P₁ = 90.8 Pa. Find (a) the speed v₂ of the gas in the larger original pipe and (b) the volume flow rate Q of the gas. P₂ Hi (a) Number i (b) Number A1 Lo P₁ Venturi meter Units Units ()
