Answer:

H_w = 2.129 m

Explanation:

given,

Width of the weir, B = 1.2 m

Depth of the upstream weir, y = 2.5 m

Discharge, Q = 0.5 m³/s

Weir coefficient, C_w = 1.84 m

Now, calculating the water head over the weir

Q = C_w BH^{3/2}

H = (\dfrac{Q}{C_wB})^{2/3}

H = (\dfrac{0.5}{1.84\times 1.2})^{2/3}

H = 0.371\ m

now, level of weir on the channel

H_w = y - H

H_w = 2.5 - 0.371

H_w = 2.129 m

Height at which weir should place is equal to 2.129 m.

Hydrogen is found in three different states inside Jupiter, ______, liquid, and liquid ______.
tekilochka [14]

Answer:

gas, metal

Explanation:

The three states of by which hydrogen is found in Jupiter is made up of:

  1. Gaseous hydrogen
  2. liquid hydrogen
  3. liquid metal hydrogen

This is also the same states found in Saturn too.

The pressure inside the largest planet in our solar system is very great.

  • Hydrogen and helium makes up the entirety of the planet Jupiter.
  • It has been discovered that inside this planet, hydrogen often occurs as gas, liquid and metal
  • This is often attributed to the huge amount of pressure in the planet.

A 1500 kg truck travelling north at 60 km/hr collides with a 1200 kg car moving east at 15km/hr. If the two cars remain locked t
Alenkinab [10]

Answer:

33.33j+6.67i km/hr

Explanation:

From the law of conservation of momentum,

Applying,

mu+m'u' = V(m+m')............... Equation 1

Where m = mass of the truck, m' = mass of the car, u = initial velocity of the truck, u' = initial velocity of the car, V = Final velocity.

Note: let j represent the north, and i  represent the east

From the question,

Given: m = 1500 kg, u = 60j, m' = 1200 kg, u' = 15i

Substitute these values into equation 1

1500*60j+1200*15i = V(1500+1200)

90000j+18000i = 2700V

V = (90000j+18000i)/2700

V = 33.33j+6.67i km/hr
