Accepted Answer

$$2,453\ \mathrm{N/m^2$}$$

Question 12

Which of the following is true for an incompressible fluid at rest?

Accepted Answer

The pressure at a given depth depends only on the vertical distance below the surface.

Question 13

A slanted-tube manometer is used to measure a small pressure difference. If the length of the fluid column is $$l$$ and the angle with the horizontal is $$	heta$$, what is the vertical height difference $$h$$?

Accepted Answer

$$h = l \sin 	heta$$

Question 14

A gas is stored in a tank at a pressure of $$300\ \mathrm{kPa}. If a U-$$tube manometer using mercury ($$\gamma = 133,000\ \mathrm{N/m^3$}) $$shows a difference in height of $$0.2\ \mathrm{m}$$, what is the pressure in the tank in $$\mathrm{kPa}$$ above atmospheric pressure?

Accepted Answer

$$26.6\ \mathrm{kPa}$$

Question 15

Which of the following is a correct statement about buoyant force?

Accepted Answer

The buoyant force on a submerged object equals the weight of the fluid displaced.

Question 16

If the pressure at the base of a skyscraper is $$101\ \mathrm{kPa}$$ and the pressure at the top (assuming air is incompressible, $$\rho = 1.225\ \mathrm{kg/m^3$}$$, $$h = 500\ \mathrm{m}) is to be $$calculated, which formula should be used?
