Water towers store water above the level of consumers for times of heavy use, eliminating need for high-speed pumps. How high above a user must the water level be to create a gauge pressure of 3.00105 N/m2?
What is density of a woman floats in fresh water with 4.00% of her volume above the surface? (This could be measured by placing her in a Wii marks on the side to measure how much water she displaces when floating and when held under water.) (b) What percent of her volume is above surface when she floats in seawater?
A sump pump (used to drain water from be basement of houses built below the water table) is draining a flooded basement at rate of 0.750 L/S, with an output pressure of 3.00105N/m2 . (a) The water enters a hose with a 3.00-cm inside diameter and rises 2.50 m above the pump. What is its pressure at this point? (b) The hose goes over the foundation wall, losing 0.500 m in height and widens to 4.00 cm in diameter. What is the pressure now? You may neglect frictional losses both parts of the problem.
What is the pressure drop due to the Bernoulli Effect as water goes into a 3.00-cm-diameter nozzle from a 9.00-cm-diameter fire hose while carrying a flow of 40.0 L/s? (b) To what maximum above be nozzle can this water rise? (The actual height will be significantly smaller due to air resistance.)
Concrete is pumped from a cement mixer to the place it is being lad, instead of being carried wheelbarrows. The flow rate is 200 L/min through a 50.0-m-long, 8.00-cm-diameter hose, and he pressure it the pump is 8.00106 N/m2. (a) Calculate the resistance of the hose. (b) What is the viscosity of the concrete, assuming the flow is laminar? (c) How much power is being supplied, assuming the point of use is at the same level as the pump? You may neglect the power supplied to increase be concrete's velocity.

Every few years, winds in Boulder, Colorado, attain sustained speeds of 43.0 m/s (about 100 mph) when jet steam descends during early spring. Approximately what is the force due to the Bernoulli equation on a roof having an area of 220m2? Typical air density in Boulder is 1.14kg/m3, and be corresponding atmospheric pressure is 8.89104 N/m2. (Bernoulli’s principal as stated in the text assumes laminar flow. Using the principle here produces only an approximate result, because there is significant turbulence.)
