Answer:

a)- the density of wood is 333.33 Kg/m³

b)-unstable condition

c)-unstable condition

Explanation:

Given data

wooden cylinder = 0.02m  x 0.02m x 0.1m

floating = 1/3 × Length

to find out

density of wood,  is it stable condition and wood would float stably in alcohol with density 700 kg/m3

Solution

First we find out density of wood

we know density of water is 1000 kg/m³

and we know wood float 1/3 of length so fraction of density will be

density of wood/ density of water = 1/3

density of wood = 1/3 ×  density of water

density of wood  = 1/3 × 1000 = 333.33 Kg/m³

Now in 2nd part we know for stable condition in partially submerged of body the metacentric height is greater than the centroid of body

we check these condition now,

metacentric height (GM)= I/v  

I = ( 0.02 × 0.02³ / 12 )  

v = ( 0.02 × 0.02 × 0.1 )

(GM)= I/v =  ( 0.02 × 0.02³ / 12 ) / ( 0.02 × 0.02 × 0.1 ) = 0.000333

and we know centroid of body (BM) =  0.05 - 0.033 = 0.017

we know height is 0.1m so G act at 0.05 and B act at (0.1 × 0.3 ) = 0.033

we can see that now metacentric height is less than centroid of body so our body is unstable condition

Now in 3rd part we use alcohol so we calculate ratio of density of wood and density of alcohol i.e. = 333.33 / 700 = 0.48

so now our new G will be 0.05 and B will be (0.1 × 0.48 ) = 0.048

metacentric height (GM)= I/v =  ( 0.02 × 0.02³ / 12 ) / ( 0.02 × 0.02 × 0.1 ) = 0.000333

centroid of body (BM) =  0.05 - 0.048 = 0.002

we can see that now metacentric height is less than centroid of body so our body is unstable condition

Given below are the measured streamflows in cfs from a storm of 6-hour duration on a stream having a drainage area of 185 mi^2.
sertanlavr [38]

Answer:

33.56 ft^3/sec.in

Explanation:

Duration = 6 hours

drainage area = 185 mi^2

constant baseflow = 550 cfs

<u>Derive the unit hydrograph using the inverse procedure </u>

first step : calculate for the volume of direct runoff hydrograph using the details in table 2 attached below

Vdrh = sum of drh *  duration

        = 29700 * 6 hours ( 216000 secs )

        = 641,520,000 ft^3.

next step : Calculate the volume of runoff in equivalent depth

Vdrh / Area = 641,520,000  / 185 mi^2

                    = 1.49 in

Finally derive the unit hydrograph

Unit of hydrograph = drh /  volume of runoff in equivalent depth

                                = 50 ft^3 / 1.49 in  =  33.56 ft^3/sec.in

Harmonic excitation of motion is represent as
Gennadij [26K]

Harmonic excitation refers to a sinusoidal external force of a certain frequency applied to a system. ... Resonance occurs when the external excitation has the same frequency as the natural frequency of the system. It leads to large displacements and can cause a system to exceed its elastic range and fail structurally.
