Question
pt) Three containers connected at the base are filled with a liquid. The top of each container is open to the atmosphere and surface tension is negligible. The containct shapes are all different. The figure that shows the correct fluid levels in the containers at equilibrium conditions is 4. (lpt) A closed tank is filled with a liquid. The liquid pressure at the top of the tank is less than atmospheric pressure. Which of the following accurately represents the absolute pressure distribution on the surface indicated? 5. (Ipt)You are standing on the bottom of a lake with your torso above water. Which statement is correct? (a) There is no buoyant force on you since you are supported by the lake bottom. b) There is a buoyant force that is proportional to the weight of your body below the water level. (c)There is a buoyant force that is proportional to the volume of your body that is below the level of the water. (d) You feel a buoyant force only when you momentarily jump up from the bottom of the lake. 2/8/2018 Page 5 XWExplanation / Answer
3. Option (d) is correct one. Since, at equlibrium all containers will show same level.
4. option (b) is correct. Since, the tank is closed with less than atmospheric pressure at top and gradually increasing pressure with depth.
5. option (c) is correct. There is a buoyant force that is proportional to the volume of your body that is below the level of the water.
