This is what my teachers says: p*L=(Pt+Pa)*L 102*48=583*L L = 102*48 / 583 L = 8,4 meters 48 - 8,4 = Approx. 40 meters is the length the water will rise Because: The air pressure at 8,4 meters = 102*48 / 8.4 = 583 (Which is the same pressure as the water pressure by the opening...

I'm completely toasted and the assignment is due tomorrow but I gave it anothere shot. I tried and I tried and I tried what you guys said but since I'm not English it's hard for me to understand everything. I came up with approx. 8 meters at my last try. It's probably wrong though.. And I...

Sorry about that! Where I'm from it means 380 (decimal) 000 kPa. The right way is 380.000 or?

Let me see if I get this right. p * V = p * V (Constant) But since the tube doesn't expand in width I only have to consider the height. So equation will be: p * h = p * h The pressure inside the tube before it gets filled with water is 102 kPa at 48 meters. The water pressure at the bottom of...

Okey, I'll try but it probably won't make any sence. Fluid pressure: 483 kPa Air pressure: 102 kPa Inside the tube there is a pressure of 102 kPa, outside there is a pressure of 483 kPa. The water needs to compress the pressure inside the tube by: 483 - 102 = 380 kPa. This equals a height...

Homework Statement The assignment is not in english but I'll try to translate it. I hope I've posted it in the right thread. You have a tube which is 48 meters long and one end is closed while the other end is open. You take the tube with the open end first into seawater (1025 kg/m3) and drop...
