Assignment:

2.) A U- tube has a horizontal part 0.6m. long with vertical end limbs. If the whole tube is
rotated about a vertical axis 0.45m from one end and 0.15m from the other, calculate the speed
when the difference of level between the tubes is 0.25m. Answer: 49.9 rev/min
4.) A glass tube, internal diameter 50mm and length 300mm, has its axis vertical. It is
closed at both ends and contains a liquid filling three- fourths of its volume of the tube. The tube
is made to revolve about its axis. Find the speed in rev/min when the bottom of the cup formed
by the liquid is at the bottom of the tube. This arrangement is used as a speed indicator. Plot a
graph showing the relation between speed in rev/min and the depth of the vortex below the top of
the tube. Answer: 1311 rev/min
6.) What is the greatest speed in revolutions per min at which an open cylindrical tank
0.6m in diam may be rotated about its axis vertical axis, the tank being 0.9m high and two- thirds
filled with water when stationary, if (a) no water is to spill over the sides, (b) the water spills
over the sides and the bottom of the tank is free of water for a radius of 150mm about the vertical
axis? Answer: 109 rev/min, 154.4 rev/min

8.) An hydraulic footsteps bearing on a 100mm diam shaft consists of a 500mm diam disc
rotating in water in a pressure cylinder. The lower face of the disc is plane and is supported by
radial ribs on the base of the pressure cylinder, its upper face has radial ribs and the upper
surface of the pressure cylinder is plane. The two portions of the cylinder are in free
communication with each other around the periphery of the disc. Find the load which the bearing
will support at 500 rev/min without pressure between the disc and the fixed ribs. Answer: 8 400N

10.) A conical vessel with base uppermost, is rotated about its axis which is vertical. The
vessel was completely filled with water when at rest. After rotating the vessel at 60 rev/min only
150 liters of water remain in it. Calculate the height of the cone if the diameter of the base is 1m.
Answer: 1.31m
