Question

Please answer  part b  : To find h asap Thanks

A block of mass 20 g sits at rest on a plate that is at the top of the fluid on one side of a U-tube as shown below. The U-tube contains two different fluids with densities rho1 = 1015 kg/m3 and rho2 = 605 kg/m3 and has a cross sectional area A = 5.3 times 10-4 m2. The surfaces are offset by an amount h as shown. Which side of the U-tube contains the fluid with the greater density? Find h. (Assume h is positive.) Need Help? Consider a wooden block of density 675 kg/m3 and volume 2.4 m3. What force is required to hold it completely under water? N Need Help?

Explanation / Answer

The fluid with the greater density is in the limb of the U tube where the free liquid surface is low.
