Transcribed Image Text:Situation 5 : Rotating Vessels
A closed cylinder 1.0 m Ø and 2.0 m high
contains water 1.5 m deep, the remaining air
space being under a pressure of 120 kPa.
1. Compute the pressure at the center of the
bottom if w = 12 rad/s. (126 kPa)
2. Compute the pressure at the circumference of
the bottom. (144 kPa)
3. What will just zero the depth of water at
the center. (17.9 rad/s)
4. How much area of the bottom is not covered
with water if = 20 rad/s? (0.042 m²)
