A 12m long gate that is 4 m wide is placed against a body of water at an angle of 60 degrees. The gate is being pulled by a rope

placed 3 m from the top of the gate at 60 kN. If the water is 9 m deep, what is the minimum weight of the gate that will cause it to rotate clockwise

Answer:

Since the weight cannot take a negative value, it is concluded that the minimum weight required for the gate is zero, because the same pressure force will rotate the gate.

Explanation:

Given:

L = 12 m

F = 60 kN

w = 4 m

H = 9 m

The pressure force is:

F_{p} =\rho gAx=1000*9.8*\frac{9}{sin60} *4*\frac{9}{2} =1833.203kN

The center of pressure is:

h=\frac{\frac{(\frac{9}{sin60})^{3} *4 }{12}*sin^{2}60  }{\frac{9}{sin60}*4*\frac{9}{2}  } +\frac{9}{2} =6

If the moment is equal to zero,

F_{p} *(9-6)+W*\frac{L}{2} cos60=F*9\\1833.203*3+W*6*cos60=60*9\\W=-1653.2kN

A reservoir located in the mountain 250 m above sea level flows through a pipe to a hydroelectric plant in a town at sea level.
Pavlova-9 [17]

Answer:

     v₂ = 70 m / s

Explanation:

For this exercise let's use Bernoulli's equation

where subscript 1 is for the top of the mountain and subscript 2 is for Tuesday's level

 

          P₁ + ½ ρ v₁² + ρ g y₁ = P₂ +1/2 ρ v₂² + ρ g y₂

indicate that the pressure in the two points is the same, y₁ = 250 m, y₂ = 0 m, the water in the upper part, because it is a reservoir, is very large for which the velocity is very small, we will approximate it to 0 (v₁ = 0), we substitute

         ρ g y₁ = ½ ρ v₂²

         v₂ = \sqrt {2g \ y_1}

let's calculate

         v₂ = √( 2 9.8 250)

         v₂ = 70 m / s

Se coloca una piedra de 600 g en una Honda de 50 cm y se la hace girar a una velocidad de 4 m/s. Dibuja la fuerza que ejerce la
Dima020 [189]

Answer:

Fc = 19.2 N

Explanation:

In this case, the force of the Honda over the rock, is a centripetal force. Then, you have:

F_c=m\frac{v^2}{r}

m: mass of the rock = 600g = 0.6 kg

v: tangential velocity of the Honda = 4m/s

r: radius of the Honda = 50cm = 0.5m

You replace the values of m, r and v in the equation for Fc:

F_c=(0.6kg)\frac{(4m/s)^2}{0.5m}\\\\F_c=19.2N

hence, the force has a magnitude of 19.2 N

If the rock would have more mass the centripetal force would be higher
