Question
Figure. shows a large closed cylindrical tank containing water. Initially the air trapped above the water surface has a height h0 and pressure 2p0 where p0 is the atmospheric pressure. There is a hole in the wall of the tank at a depth h1 below the top from which water comes out. A long vertical tube is connected as shown.
  1. Find the height h2 of the water in the long tube above the top initially.
  2. Find the speed with which water comes out of the hole.
  3. Find the height of the water in the long tube above the top when the water stops coming out of the hole.

Answer


  1. $2\text{P}_0\text{x} = (\text{h}_2 + \text{h}_0)\text{fg}$ [$\therefore$ Since liquid at the same level have same pressure]

$\Rightarrow2\text{P}_0 = \text{h}_2\text{fg} + \text{h}_0\text{fg}$

$\Rightarrow \text{h}_2\text{fg} = 2\text{P}_0 - \text{h}_0\text{fg}$

$\text{h}_2=\frac{2\text{P}_0}{\text{fg}}-\frac{\text{h}_0\text{fg}}{\text{fg}}=\frac{2\text{P}_0}{\text{fg}}-\text{h}_0$

  1. K.E. of the water = Pressure energy of the water at that layer

$\Rightarrow\frac{1}{2}\text{mV}^2=\text{m}\times\frac{\text{P}}{\text{f}}$

$\Rightarrow\text{V}^2=\frac{2\text{P}}{\text{f}}=\Big[\frac{2}{\text{f}(\text{P}_0+\text{fg})(\text{h}_1-\text{h}_0)}\Big]$

$\Rightarrow\text{V}=\Big[\frac{2}{\text{f}(\text{P}_0+\text{fg})(\text{h}_1-\text{h}_0)}\Big]^{\frac{1}{2}}$

  1. $(\text{x} + \text{P}_0)\text{fh} = 2\text{P}_0$

$\therefore2\text{P}_0 + \text{fg (h} - \text{h}_0)= \text{P}_0 + \text{fgx}$

$\therefore\text{X}=\frac{\text{P}_0}{\text{fg}+\text{h}_1-\text{h}_0}=\text{h}_2+\text{h}_1$

$\therefore$ i.e. x is h1 meter below the top

⇒ x is -h1 above the top

A hole of radius r1 is made centrally in a uniform circular disc of thickness d and radius r2. The inner surface (a cylinder of length d and radius r1) is maintained at a temperature $\theta_1$ and the outer surface (a cylinder of length d and radius r2) is maintained at a temperature $\theta_2(\theta_1>\theta_2).$ The thermal conductivity of the material of the disc is K. Calculate the heat flowing per unit time through the disc.
A man wants to reach from A to the opposite corner of the square C Fig. The sides of the square are 100m. A central square of 50m × 50m is filled with sand. Outside this square, he can walk at a speed 1m/ s. In the central square, he can walk only at a speed of $\upsilon\text{m/ s}(\upsilon<1)$. What is smallest value of v for which he can reach faster via a straight path through the sand than any path in the square outside the sand?

$\big[$Hint: Assume the atoms to be ‘tightly packed’ in a solid or liquid phase, and use the known value of Avogadro’s number. You should, however, not take the actual numbers you obtain for various atomic sizes too literally. Because of the crudeness of the tight packing approximation, the results only indicate that atomic sizes are in the range of a few $\mathring{\text{A}}\big].$
