is 2.0 cm, and the radius of the nozzle is 0.49 cm. The speed of the water in the pipe is
0.65 m/s. Treat the water as an ideal fluid, and determine the absolute pressure of the
water in the pipe. The atmosphere pressure is P = 1.01 105 Pa, and the density of water
is = 1.00 103 kg/m3.
B. A long, thin uniform rod is cut into two pieces, one being
twice as long as the other. To the midpoint of piece A (the
longer piece), piece B is attached perpendicularly, in order to
form the inverted "T" shown in the drawing. The application
of a net external torque causes this object to rotate about axis
1 with an angular acceleration of 4.97 rad/s2. When the
same net external torque is used to cause the object to rotate
about axis 2, what is the angular acceleration?
C. A ball with an average density of 1.325 g/cm3 is released from 1.3 m underwater. What
is its initial acceleration? (Acceleration is a vector.)
B. A small crack occurs at the base of a 16.0 m high dam. The effective crack area through
which water leaves is 1.30 10-3 m2. Ignore viscous losses. How many cubic meters of
water per second leave the dam?
