Step-by-step solution
5 stepshere is the solution to question 4.
4. The figure below shows how water is drawn from a large tank into a low-lying container using a rubber tube of uniform cross-sectional area . Determine the force driving out the water.
Identify the effective height difference.
The force driving the water out is due to the pressure difference created by the vertical height difference between the water surface in the large tank and the outlet of the tube.
From the diagram:
Height of water surface from the top of the tube =
Height of the outlet from the top of the tube =
Effective height difference .Convert the height to meters.
State the given values.
Density of water
Gravitational field strength (standard value)
Cross-sectional areaCalculate the pressure difference.
The pressure difference is given by the formula :
Calculate the force driving out the water.
The force is the pressure difference multiplied by the cross-sectional area:
The force driving out the water is .
