- Concrete is pumped from a cement mixer to the place it is being lad, instead of being carried wheelbarrows. The flow rate is 200 L/min through a 50.0-m-long, 8.00-cm-diameter hose, and he pressure it the pump is 8.00106 N/m2. (a) Calculate the resistance of the hose. (b) What is the viscosity of the concrete, assuming the flow is laminar? (c) How much power is being supplied, assuming the point of use is at the same level as the pump? You may neglect the power supplied to increase be concrete's velocity.arrow_forwardCheck Your Understanding If the reservoir in Example 14.1 covered twice the area, but was kept to the same depth, would the dam need to be redesigned?arrow_forwardA submarine is stranded on the bottom of the ocean with its hatch 25.0 m below surface.

- A sump pump (used to drain water from be basement of houses built below the water table) is draining a flooded basement at rate of 0.750 L/S, with an output pressure of 3.00105N/m2 . (a) The water enters a hose with a 3.00-cm inside diameter and rises 2.50 m above the pump. What is its pressure at this point? (b) The hose goes over the foundation wall, losing 0.500 m in height and widens to 4.00 cm in diameter. What is the pressure now? You may neglect frictional losses both parts of the problem.arrow_forwardAn oil gusher shoots crude 25.0 m the through a pipe with a 0.100-m diameter. Neglecting resistance but not resistance of the pipe, and assuming laminar flow, calculate pressure at be entrance of be 50.0-m-Iong vertical pipe. Take of the oil to be 900 kg/m3 and its viscosity to be 100(N/m2) s (or 1.00 Pa s). Note that you must take into account the pressure due to 50.0-m column of oil in pipe.arrow_forwardWater pressure inside a hose nozzle can be less than atmospheric pressure due to the Bernoulli effect.
