Water flows with a velocity of 3 m/s in a rectangular channel 3 m wide at a depth of 3 m. What is the change in depth and in wat

er surface elevation produced when a gradual contraction in the channel to a width of 2.6 m takes place? Determine the greatest contraction allowable without altering the specified upstream conditions.

Answer: new depth will be 3.462m and the water elevation will be 0.462m.

The maximum contraction will be achieved in width 0<w<3

Explanation:detailed calculation and explanation is shown in the image below

mina [271]

Answer:

fracture will occur as the value is less than E/10 (= 22.5)

Explanation:

If the maximum strength at tip Is greater than theoretical fracture strength value then fracture will occur and if the maximum strength is lower than theoretical fracture strength then no fracture will occur.

\sigma_m = 2\sigma_o [\frac{a}{\rho_t}]^{1/2}

=  2\times 750 (\frac{\frac{0.2mm}{2}}{0.001 mm}})^{1/2}

                 = 15 GPa

fracture will occur as the value is less than E/10 = 22.5

A packet weighs 40kg in air but when it is totally submerged into a 1mx1m square tank the weight of the packet is only 18kg. How
Irina18 [472]

Answer:

water  rise = 22 mm

Explanation:

weight of packet IN AIR = 40 *9.81 =392.4 N

weight of packet  IN WATER= 18 *9.81 =176.58 N

by Archimedi's principle

difference in weight = weight of displaced water

w_a - w_w = \rho_w v_d g

392.4 - 176.58 = 1000* v_d* 9.81

v_d = 0.022 m^3

v_d = A*H_rise

0.022 =1*H_rise

H_rise = 0.022 m = 22 mm

water  rise = 22 mm
