A hydraulic engineer is studying the pressure in a particular fluid. The pressure is equal to the atmospheric pressure 101 kN/m
1 answer:
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The pressure is equal to the atmospheric pressure 101 kN/m plus 8 kN/m for every meter below the surface, therefore;
a. expression for pressure is given by,
............................... (1)
where d = depth below the surface in meter.
b. to find the depth at any pressure, equation (1) above is rearranged to make depth (d) subject of the formula
as an example, to find depth at pressure of 200N/m
d = (200 - 101)/8 = 12.375 meters
depth is 12.375 meters below the surface.

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
B3)
z + 127 = 180 {linear pair}
z = 180 - 127
z = 53
y= 55 {Corresponding angles}
w + z + y = 180 {angle sum property of triangle}
w + 53 + 55 = 180
w + 108 = 180
w = 180 -108
w = 72
x = w {Vertiaclly opposite angles}
x = 72
B4) q + 101 = 180 {Linear pair}
q = 180 -101
q = 79
p = 142 {Corresponding angles}
p + s = 180 {linear pair}
142 + s = 180
s = 180 - 142
s = 38
s +q +r = 180 {angle sum property of triangle}
38 + 79 + r = 180
117 + r = 180
r = 180 - 117
r = 63
y + 63 = 180 {linear pair}
y = 180 - 63
y = 117
x = q = {corresponding angles}
x = 79
