A nuclear power plant draws of cooling water from the ocean. If the water is drawn in through two parallel,-diameter pipes, what is the water speed in each pipe?
Water flows through a hose at . How long, in minutes, will it take to fill a child's wading pool
The container shown in FIGURE EX14.12 is filled with oil. It is open to the atmosphere on
the left.
a. What is the pressure at point A?
b. What is the pressure difference between points A and B? Between points A and C?

In addition to the buoyant force, an object moving in a liquid experiences a linear drag force , direction opposite the motion), where is a constant. For a sphere of radius , the drag constant can be shown to be , where is the viscosity of the liquid. Consider a sphere of radiusand density that is released from rest at the surface of a liquid with density .
a. Find an expression in terms of , and the densities for the sphere's terminal speed as it falls through the liquid.
b. Solve Newton's second law to find an expression for , the sphere's vertical velocity as a function of time as it falls. Pay careful attention to signs!
c. Water at has viscosity Pas. Aluminum has density . If a -mm-diameter aluminum pellet is dropped into water, what is its terminal speed, and how long does it take to reach of its terminal speed?
A research submarine has a 20-cm-diameter window 8.0 cm thick. The manufacturer says the window can withstand forces up to 1.0 * 106 N. What is the submarine’s maximum
safe depth? The pressure inside the submarine is maintained at 1.0 atm.
