The purpose of this experiment is to determine the minimum weight, W, needed to keep the box from lifting off the surface. Equipment: An open-bottom box that has vertical side walls and slanted end walls; weights; ruler; scale. Experimental Procedure: Determine the weight, W,... of the empty box and measure its length, L, width, b, wall thickness, t, nd the angle ofthe ends, @. Set the box on a smooth surface and place a known mass, m, on it. Slowly fill the box with water and note the depth, fat which the net upward water force is equal othe total weight, W ++ Wags where W = mg. This condition will be obvious because the friction force between the box and the surface on which it sits will be zero and the box will “float” effortlessly along the surface. Repeat for various masses and water levels. Calculations: For an arbitrary water depth, h, determine the theoretical weight, W, needed to maintain equilibrium with no contact force between the box and the surface below it. This ‘can be done by equating the total weight, W + Way to the net vertical hydrostatic pressure force on the box. Calculate this vertical pressure force for two different situations. (1) As- sume the vertical pressure force is the vertical component of the pressure forces acting on the slanted ends of the box. (2) Assume the vertical upward force is that from part (1) plus the pressure force acting under the sides and ends of the box because of the finite thickness, 1, of the box walls, This additional pressure force is assumed to be due to an average pres- sure of Pug = yh/2 acting on the “foot print” area of the box walls, Graph: Plot the experimentally determined total weight, W + Wha as ordinates and the water depth, has abscssas Results: On the same graph plot two theoretical total weight verses water depth curves— ‘one involving only the slanted-end pressure force, and the other including the slanted end and the finite-thickness wall pressure forces.

If the pressure within the box is large enough, the box will lift slightly off the surface, air will flow under its edges, and there will be very litle frictional force between the box and the surface. The purpose of this ‘experiment is to determine the lifting force, W, as a function of pressure, p, within the box, Equipment: Inverted rectangular box; air supply; weights; manometer, Experimental Procedure: Connect the air source and the manometer to the inverted square box. Determine the weight, Woy of the square box and measure its length and width, L, and the wall thickness, , Set the inverted box on a smooth surface and place a known 88, m, nit. Increase the air flowrate until the box lifts off the surface slightly and “floats” with negligible frictional force. Record the manometer reading, h, under these conditions. Repeat the measurements with various masses Calculations: Determine the theoretical weight that can be lifted by the air pad by equat- ing the total weight, W + Woo to the net vertical pressure force on the box. Here W = mg. Calculate this pressure force for two different situations, (1) Assume the pressure force is equal to the area ofthe box, A = L? times the pressure, p = Yah, within the box, where is the specific weight of the manometer fluid, (2) Assume that the net pressure force is that from part (1) plus the pressure force acting under the edges of the box because of the finite thickness, t, of the box walls. This additional pressure force is assumed to be due to an av- erage pressure of Pay = Yuli/2 acting on the “foot print” area of the box walls, 4i(L + 1).
