A water tower is a familiar sight in many towns. The purpose of such a tower is to provide storage capacity and to provide sufficient pressure in the pipes that deliver the water to customers. The drawing shows a spherical reservoir that contains 5.25  105 kg of water when full. The reservoir is vented to the atmosphere at the top. For a full reservoir, find the gauge pressure that the water has at the faucet in (a) house A and (b) house B. Ignore the diameter of the delivery pipes

The image of the water tower and the houses is in the attachment.

(a) P = 245kPa;

(b) P = 173.5 kPa

Explanation: Gauge pressure is the pressure relative to the atmospheric pressure and it is only dependent of the height of the liquid in the container.

The pressure is calculated as: P = hρg

where

ρ is the density of the liquid, in this case, water, which is ρ = 1000kg/m³;

When it is full the reservoir contains 5.25×10⁵ kg. So, knowing the density, you know the volume:

ρ =

V = ρ/m

V =

V = 525 m³

To know the height of the spherical reservoir, its diameter is needed and to determine it, find the radius:

V =

r =

r = 5.005 m

diameter = 2*r = 10.01m

(a) Height for House A:

h = 15 + 10.01

h = 25.01

P = hρg

P = 25.01.10³.9.8

P = 245.10³ Pa or 245kPa

(b) h = 25 - 7.3

h = 17.71

P = hρg

P = 17.71.1000.9.8

P = 173.5.10³ Pa or 173.5 kPa
