Document Summary

Homework #1: due fri 9/25/14 at the beginning of lecture. Please follow the solution steps outlined in the syllabus: water at standard atmospheric pressure and temperature fills a sealed, rigid container. What is the shear stress in the fluid at the wall of the pipe? (just use symbols. ) Pacific ocean, which is 10,924 meters (35,840 ft or 6. 8 miles) below sea level. Hydrosubs, inc. , offers to sell you a mini sub that can withstand 1,200 atmospheres of pressure. Will this mini sub work for your expedition? (note that the density of seawater varies with temperature, salinity, and pressure. This will give you an answer that is higher than you would obtain with variable density, but at least it"s more conservative!) Figure for problem 3: a manometer is formed from glass tubing with uniform inside diameter, d=6. 35 mm, as shown. Then v=3. 25 cm3 of meriam red oil is added to the left side.
