Question
The tank shown has a 0.1 m diameter circular plug which will pop out if the hydrostatic force on it reaches 550 N. Assume fluid is incompressible with specific weight = 9000 N/m3 water density = 1000 kg/m³, g = 9.81 m/s? h1= 0.02 m, neglect the plug weight. Take y-direction along the plug from point O, x-direction normal to the paper, Mercury specific weight = 13.6, the top of the fluid is open to the atmosphere, the fluid under hydrostatic condition. Answer the following sub-questions: Fluid 50 Manometer Gate as a plug with diameter h1 = D Mercury
