Question:
A tank of water (15°C) with a total weight of 200 N (water plus the container) is suspended by a vertical cable. Pressurized air drives a water jet (d = 12 mm) out the bottom of the tank such that the tension in the vertical cable is 10 N. If H = 425 mm, fi nd the required air pressure in units of atmospheres (gage). Assume the flow of water is irrotational.
Vertical cable - Pressurized air H Water Jet diameter d
Step by Step Answer:
The force needed to hold the tank in place is equal to the force exerted by the water jet The force ...View the full answer

In this video, the concept of pressure has been explained. The bottle is filled up with water, remove the pipe, and now you can see the clear flow of water from the holes due to liquid pressure.You can see that the second layer is holding the weight of the first layer and the third layer holding the weight of both upper layers, that’s why liquid flows out wider from the third as compared to the first two.At the first hole, water doesn’t roll along the walls; it flows out at an angle.At the second hole, you’ll see that the water flows out at a wider angle as compared to the first hole.At the third hole, we can see that the flow of water is much wider/greater than the other holes.This proves that the pressure at the bottom of the bottle is much more than the pressure at the top layers.
