- Hydraulics: A fluid-filled syringe has a plunger with a diameter of 1 cm. The needle has a diameter of 1 mm. The plunger is depressed at a rate of 1 cm per second.
- With what speed will the fluid squirt from the tip of the needle?
- If the end of the needle is capped, and a force of 1 pound is applied to the plunger, what force will be applied to the end cap? Explain your answer.
- Fluid weight (Ex. 14.1),
- Fluid equilibrium and the center of gravity (Ex. 14.2a, b),
- PHY 201: Fluid equilibrium and the center of gravity (Ex. 14.2c)
