In a system, an open cylindrical steel tank, which has a density of 7820 kg/m^3, has an inside diameter of 4.0 m and an internal height of 5.0 m. From being initially empty, exactly 2,582.13 slugs of water were poured into the tank. Next, another liquid mass, equivalent to 1,626.742 slugs, was poured inside the tank. After settling, this fluid occupied three-tenths of the total internal height of the container. Then, mercury was poured into the tank. After the fluid has settled, the height of the mercury layer was measured to be one-fifth of a meter. Finally, oil, with S.G.=0.80, was poured to fill the remaining empty volume of the tank. 1) Draw the vertical profile of the tank and label properly all the liquid layers, indicating properly the value of specific gravity used for each liquid layer. 2) What is the total mass of the system if the tank itself has a volume of 2.29 m^3? 3)Solve for the hydrostatic gage pressure at the liquid surface, at the interfaces between any two consecutive liquids, and at the bottom of the tank.

Question
Transcribed Image Text:In a system, an open cylindrical steel tank, which has a density of 7820 kg/m^3, has an
inside diameter of 4.0 m and an internal height of 5.0 m. From being initially empty, exactly
2,582.13 slugs of water were poured into the tank. Next, another liquid mass, equivalent to
1,626.742 slugs, was poured inside the tank. After settling, this fluid occupied three-tenths of
the total internal height of the container. Then, mercury was poured into the tank. After the
fluid has settled, the height of the mercury layer was measured to be one-fifth of a meter.
Finally, oil, with S.G.=0.80, was poured to fill the remaining empty volume of the tank. 1) Draw
the vertical profile of the tank and label properly all the liquid layers, indicating properly the
value of specific gravity used for each liquid layer. 2) What is the total mass of the system if
the tank itself has a volume of 2.29 m^3? 3)Solve for the hydrostatic gage pressure at the
liquid surface, at the interfaces between any two consecutive liquids, and at the bottom of the
tank.
