Bernoulli's Equation
A tube of length is filled completely with an incompressible liquid of mass and closed at both ends. The tube is then rotated in horizontal plane about one of its ends with a uniform angular velocity . If be the force exerted by the liquid at the other end then the value of will be __________.
Numerical answer type. Work it out, then open the answer.
Show answer and solution
Answer: 4
- The liquid moves in a circle; the end wall supplies the total centripetal force, acting on the centre of mass at .
- So .
