1. Water and gasoline surfaces are opened to the atmosphere and are at the same elevation. What is
the height of the third liquid in the right leg?
2. A 90 mm diameter shaft rotates 1300 rpm in a 150mm long journal bearing of 100 mm internal
diameter. The angular space bearing is filled with oil having a dynamic viscosity of 0.03 kg/m-s.
Estimate the power dissipated.
3. The velocity distribution over a plate 1 m long and 0.4 m wide is given by:

( )

where is the velocity at a distance above the plate. Estimate the shear force on the plate.
Take viscosity of 9 poise.
4. Pressure gauge B is to measure the pressure at point A in the water flow. If the pressure at B is
87 kPa, estimate the pressure at A, in kPa. Take sp. gravity of the oil in B to be 0.88.
