. A milk truck carries milk with density 64.6 lbyft3 in a horizontal cylindrical tank with diameter 6 ft. (a) Find the force exerted by the milk on one end of the tank

Respuesta :

Answer:

Explanation:

one end of tank will be circular in shape . Area of circle A

= π r² , r is radius of the circle

= 3.14 x 3²

A = 28.26 ft³

To calculate force  on the circular area , we first find pressure at the center of the circle which is at depth equal to r

pressure at the center = h d g ' here h = depth = r   , d = density of milk

pressure = 3 x 64.6 x 32 poundal / ft²

= 6201.6 poundal / ft²

total force on circular face = pressure at the center x area of circle

= 6201.6 x 28.26

= 175257.21 poundal .
