Question

Transcribed Image Text:1- Water from a reservoir is raised in a vertical tube of internal
diameter D = 45 cm under the influence of the pulling force F of
a piston. Determine the force needed to raise the water to a height
of h = 1.5 m above the free surface. What would your response
be for h = 3 m? Also, taking the atmospheric pressure to be 96
kPa, plot the absolute water pressure at the piston face as h varies
from 0 to 3 m.
