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.

When a jet lands on an aircraft carrier, a hook on the tail of the plane grabs a wire that quickly brings the plane to a halt be
Veronika [31]
The problem seems to be incomplete because there is no question. However, from the problem description, the logical question is to find he acceleration needed by the jet to land on the airplane carrier. The working equation would be:

2ad = v₂² - v₁²
Since the jet stops, v₂ = 0. Substituting the values:
2(a)(95 m) = 0² - [(240 km/h)(1000 m/1 km)(1h/3600 s)]²
Solving for a,
<em>a = -23.39 m/s² (the negative sign indicates that the jet is decelerating)</em>
