Problem 111P

Repeat Prob. 3–116 for a deceleration of 2.5 m/s2.

PROBLEM: Milk with a density of 1020 kg/m3 is transported on a level road in a 7–m–long, 3–m–diameter cylindrical tanker. The tanker is completely filled with milk (no air space), and it accelerates at 2.5 m/s2. If the minimum pressure in the tanker is 100 kPa, determine the maximum pressure difference and the location of the maximum pressure.

QUESTION:

Problem 111P

Repeat Prob. 3–116 for a deceleration of 2.5 m/s2.

PROBLEM: Milk with a density of 1020 kg/m3 is transported on a level road in a 7–m–long, 3–m–diameter cylindrical tanker. The tanker is completely filled with milk (no air space), and it accelerates at 2.5 m/s2. If the minimum pressure in the tanker is 100 kPa, determine the maximum pressure difference and the location of the maximum pressure.

ANSWER:

Step 1 of 3

The milk van is moving towards the right. So, if the van is decelerating at 2.5 m/s2, which means the tank is accelerating at 2.5 m/s2 towards left.

The pressure of the liquid is given by

Where  is the acceleration of the liquid and  is the depth of the liquid towards the acceleration.

Using the relationship given in equation (1), find the maximum pressure.
