>Again this is because much of the water weight is supported by the bottom of the container.Irrelevant. Once the valves open and close the fill reservoir is now isolated, the water it holds does nothing to stop the piston/block. The area of the piston cancels
p1v1 = p2v2
Either the piston chamber and pipes will have enough volume to counter the mass of the block or the system will drain until the piston hits a hard stop.
Height of the water column is dependent on the volume of water required to achieve equilibrium and the radius of the pipe.
Head in an infinitely tall and narrow pipe = Block weight
Head in an infinitely short and fat pipe = Block weight
m = kgm/s^2
Weight in the pipe = density * area * height * g
kgm/s^2 = kg/m^3 * m^2 * m * m/s^2
kgm/s^2 = kgm/s^2
Height of the pipe m = 1/((kg/s^2)*(s^2/kg))^2)*^-3
Consider the weight(kgm/s^2), in the vertical pipe is equal to volume * density * g = m^3 * kg/m^3 * m/s^2 = kgm/s^2. This will be equal to both the piston and the block.
