Chapter 26.1, Problem 1cTH

1. A U-tube filled with water is closed on one end. The tube is about one meter tall. When water is removed from the open end, the water level in the closed end does not change.

c. Suppose that point F is 0.5 m above point E. Determine the pressure at point F. (Hint: What is the pressure at point E?) The density of water is $\rho =1000{\text{kg/m}}^{\text{3}}$ , $g\approx 10{\text{m/s}}^{\text{2}}$ , and atmospheric pressure $P_o=1.01\times {10}^5{\text{N/m}}^{\text{2}}$ .
