An open tank has a vertical rectangular gate as a partition, and on one side contains gasoline. The rectangular gate, that is 5 m high and 2 m wide, is hinged at the bottom end of the partition. A stopper is located at the top end of the gate, which only allows the gate to swing open towards the gasoline side of the tank. Water is slowly added to the empty side of the tank. If the depth of the gasoline is 4.5 m, determine the depth of the water when the gate is about to open.

Expert Solution

Density of gasoline is taken as 700 Kg/m³

A rigid insulated tank is initially divided into two sections by a partition. One side contains 1.0 kg of saturated-liquid water initially at 6.0 MPa, and the other side is evacuated. The partition is broken, and the fluid expands into the entire container. The total volume is such that the final equilibrium pressure is 3.0 MPa. Determine a) the initial volume of the saturated liquid in liters, b) the total volume of the entire tank in liters,

Water stands at a depth H in a large open tank whose side walls are vertical.

Water stands at a depth H in a large open tank whose side walls are vertical. A hole is made in one of the walls at a depth d below the water surface.At what distance R from the foot of the wall of the tank does the emergent stream strike the floor?How far above the bottom of the tank could the second hole be cut so that the stream emerging from it could have the same range as for the...

Considering a vertical sluice gate in a horizontal smooth rectangular channel, the upstream and downstream water depths are 5.1 and 0.45 m, respectively. The upstream flow velocity is 0.5 m/s and the channel width is 27 m. Calculate the downstream flow depth and the force acting on the sluice gate. Draw the control volume and show the forces acting on the sluice gate.

In the figure, the top tank, which is open to the atmosphere, contains water and the bottom tank contains oil covered by a piston. The tank on the right has a freely movable partition that keeps the oil and water separate. The partition is a vertical distance 0.10 m below the open surface of the water. If the piston in the bottom tank is 0.50 m below the open surface of the water and has a surface area of 8.3...

A rectangular car tank 20m long, 4m wide and 3m deep is completely open at the top. If it is initially filled to the top: (a) How much liquid will be spilled if it is given a horizontal acceleration of 0.3g in the direction of its length? (b) What is the maximum hydrostatic force acting on the side opposite the direction of the acceleration. (c) Determine the volume of the remaining water at the tank.
