Two identical containers are open at the top and are connectedatthe bottom via a tube of negligible volume and a valve thatisclosed. Both containers are filled initially to the same heightof1.00 m, one with water, the other with mercury, as thedrawingindicates. The valve is then opened. Water and mercuryareimmiscible. Determine the fluid level in the left containerwhenequilibrium is reestablished.

An open-topped tank completely filled with water has a releasevalve near its bottom. The valve is 1.55 m below the water surface.Water is released from the valve to power a turbine, whichgenerates electricity. The area of the top of the tank, AT, is a =10.3 times the cross-sectional area, AV, of the valveopening.

a) Calculate the speed of the water as it exits the valve. Neglectfriction and viscosity.

b) In addition, calculate the speed of a drop of water releasedfrom rest at h = 1.55 m when it reaches the elevation of the valve.

The water level in a vertical glass tube 1.00 m long can be adjusted to any position in the tube. A tuning fork vibrating at 686 Hz is held just over the open top end of the tube, to set up a standing wave of sound in the air-filled top portion of the tube. (That air-filled top portion acts as a tube with one end closed and the other end open.)

(a) For how many different positions of the water level will sound from the fork set up resonance in the tube’s air-filled portion?

What are the (b) least and (c) second least water heights in the tube for resonance to occur?

A U-tube open at both ends is partially filled with water (Fig. P9.88a). Oil () is then poured into the right arm and forms a column high (Fig. P9.88b). (a) Determine the difference in the heights of the two liquid surfaces, (b) The right arm is then shielded from any air motion while air is blown across the top of the left arm until the surfaces of the two liquids are at the same height (Fig. P9.88c). Determine the speed of the air being blown across the left arm. Assume the density of air is .
