Determination of the density of a fluid has many important applications. A car battery contains sulfuric acid, for which density is a measure of concentration. For the battery to function properly the density must be inside a range specified by the manufacturer. Similarly, the effectiveness of antifreeze in your car’s engine coolant depends on the density of the mixture (usually ethylene glycol and water). When you donate blood to a blood bank, its screening includes determination of the density of the blood, since higher density correlates with higher hemoglobin content. A hydrometer is an instrument used to determine liquid density. A simple one is sketched in Figure P14.31.

Figure P14.62 (a) The pressure on the surface of the two hemispheres is constant at all points, and the force on each element of surface area is directed along the radius of the hemispheres. The applied force along the axis must balance the force on the “effective” area, which is the projection of the actual surface onto a plane perpendicular to the x axis, 2 A R   2 0 F P P R      2 4 0 0 0 0.100 0.300 m 0.254 2.58 10 N F P P P          (b) For the values given 71. A U-tube open at both ends is partially filled with water (Fig. P14.71a). Oil having a density 750 kg/m3 is then poured into the right arm and forms a column L = 5.00 cm high (Fig. P 14.71b). (a) Determine the difference h in the heights of the two liquid surfaces. (b) The right arm is then shielded from any air motion while air is blown across the top of the left arm until the surfaces of the two liquids are at the same height (Fig. P14.71c). Determine the speed of the air being blown across the left arm. Take the density of air as 1.29 kg/m3. Fig. 14.71 Solution on next page 3 / 750 m kg oil  L=5.0 cm a) What is h?
