Situation 19: A solid sphere of diameter 1 m and average mass density of 750
kg/m3 is completely submerged in a tank filled with water. It is held in place by a
string attached to the bottom of the tank, as shown. The mass distribution inside
the sphere is non-uniform, so the center of mass lies at a distance 0.50R from the
geometric center. Suppose that the sphere is attached rigidly to a massless
horizontal rod of length 0.65m and negligible volume oriented along the line
formed by the center of mass and the geometric center of the sphere, as shown.
The rod is attached on the side of the sphere nearer the center of mass, and the far
end of the rod is attached to a fixed pivot.

64. Which of the following most nearly gives the buoyant force acting on the
sphere?
a. 6.12 kN c. 7.05 kN
b. 5.14 kN d. 4.97 kN

65. Which of the following most nearly gives the tension in the string that is
needed to hold the sphere in place?
a. 1.93 kN c. 2.08 kN
b. 3.15 kN d. 2.12 kN

66. Which of the following most nearly gives the reaction on the pivot?
a. 0.84 kN c. 0.75 kN
b. 1.20 kN d. 0.50 kN

10. A closed cylindrical tank having a radius of 0.60 m and a height of 4 m is full of
water under a pressure of 196.20 kPa. The wall of the tank is 5 mm thick. The tank
is rotated about its axis at 200 rpm.

Situation 41: A 3-m square plate is immersed vertically in water such that the two
edges of the square are horizontal. The center of pressure is located 8 cm from the
centroid of the square plate.

131. Which of the following most nearly gives the distance of the top edge from
the water surface?
a. 7.88 m c. 10.88 m
b. 6.38 m d. 9.38 m

132. Which of the following most nearly gives the distance of the center of
pressure from the water surface?

b. 9.46 m d. 7.96 m

133. Which of the following most nearly gives the total hydrostatic pressure on
one side of the plate?

119. Calculate the hydrostatic force acting on the gate.

a. 19.62 kN c. 29.88 kN
b. 18.55 kN d. 24.61 kN

"An open tank, 1.82 m square, weighs 3425 N and contains 0.91 m of water. It is
acted upon by an unbalanced force of 10400 N parallel to a pair of sides. What is
the force acting on the side with the greatest depth?"

maam dun sa three reservoir problem what if walang given na pressure dun sa
junction ang hirap g masolve yung elev x, kasi yung mga naeencounter kong
problem lacking yung mga ganun. kaya ang hirap po masolve. sana pomasagot
salamat
