    Tank Water
AI Thread Summary
It is possible to use a vacuum tank to draw well water, but the inlet must be within 10 meters of the outlet to maintain sufficient pressure. To effectively extract water, the outlet should be positioned below the water level in the tank. Additionally, a method to eliminate the vacuum is necessary for water to flow out of the tank. Users are seeking better diagrams with measurements for constructing such a pump. Overall, understanding the principles of pressure and gravity is crucial for this setup.

If you want the water to flow into the tank, the inlet should be no more than about 10 meters above the outlet, because a column of water of that height will have the same pressure as the air pressure. To get water out of the tank you better have a way to make the vacuum disappear.
 
No to get water to flow the outlet from the tap needs to be below the water level in the lower tank.
 

Thread '1:1 versus 2:1 Mechanical Advantage debate'

The rope is tied into the person (the load of 200 pounds) and the rope goes up from the person to a fixed pulley and back down to his hands. He hauls the rope to suspend himself in the air. What is the mechanical advantage of the system? The person will indeed only have to lift half of his body weight (roughly 100 pounds) because he now lessened the load by that same amount. This APPEARS to be a 2:1 because he can hold himself with half the force, but my question is: is that mechanical...

Thread 'Newton's first law?'

Some physics textbook writer told me that Newton's first law applies only on bodies that feel no interactions at all. He said that if a body is on rest or moves in constant velocity, there is no external force acting on it. But I have heard another form of the law that says the net force acting on a body must be zero. This means there is interactions involved after all. So which one is correct?

Thread 'Beam on an inclined plane'

Thread 'Beam on an inclined plane'

Hello! I have a question regarding a beam on an inclined plane. I was considering a beam resting on two supports attached to an inclined plane. I was almost sure that the lower support must be more loaded. My imagination about this problem is shown in the picture below. Here is how I wrote the condition of equilibrium forces: $$ \begin{cases} F_{g\parallel}=F_{t1}+F_{t2}, \\ F_{g\perp}=F_{r1}+F_{r2} \end{cases}. $$ On the other hand...
