Answer:

a.)

US Sieve no.                         % finer (C₅ )

4                                                  100

10                                                95.61

20                                               82.98

40                                               61.50

60                                               42.08

100                                              20.19

200                                              6.3

Pan                                               0

b.) D10 = 0.12, D30 = 0.22, and D60 = 0.4

c.) Cu = 3.33

d.) Cc = 1

Explanation:

As given ,

US Sieve no.             Mass of soil retained (C₂ )

4                                            0

10                                          18.5

20                                         53.2

40                                         90.5

60                                         81.8

100                                        92.2

200                                       58.5

Pan                                        26.5

Now,

Total weight of the soil = w = 0 + 18.5 + 53.2 + 90.5 + 81.8 + 92.2 + 58.5 + 26.5 = 421.2 g

⇒ w = 421.2 g

As we know that ,

% Retained = C₃ = C₂×\frac{100}{w}

∴ we get

US Sieve no.               % retained (C₃ )               Cummulative % retained (C₄)

4                                            0                                           0

10                                          4.39                                      4.39

20                                         12.63                                     17.02

40                                         21.48                                     38.50

60                                         19.42                                     57.92

100                                        21.89                                     79.81

200                                       13.89                                     93.70

Pan                                        6.30                                      100

Now,

% finer = C₅ = 100 - C₄

∴ we get

US Sieve no.               Cummulative % retained (C₄)          % finer (C₅ )

4                                                     0                                          100

10                                                  4.39                                      95.61

20                                                 17.02                                     82.98

40                                                 38.50                                    61.50

60                                                 57.92                                    42.08

100                                                79.81                                     20.19

200                                                93.70                                   6.3

Pan                                                 100                                        0

The grain-size distribution is :

b.)

From the diagram , we can see that

D10 = 0.12

D30 = 0.22

D60 = 0.12

c.)

Uniformity Coefficient = Cu = \frac{D60}{D10}

⇒ Cu = \frac{0.4}{0.12} = 3.33

d.)

Coefficient of Graduation = Cc = \frac{D30^{2}}{D10 . D60}

⇒ Cc = \frac{0.22^{2}}{(0.4) . (0.12)} = 1

. Using the Newton Raphson method, determine the uniform flow depth in a trapezoidal channel with a bottom width of 3.0 m and si
Over [174]

Answer:

y  ≈ 2.5

Explanation:

Given data:

bottom width is 3 m

side slope is 1:2

discharge is 10 m^3/s

slope is 0.004

manning roughness coefficient is 0.015

manning equation is written as

v =1/n R^{2/3} s^{1/2}

where R is hydraulic radius

S = bed slope

Q = Av =A 1/n R^{2/3} s^{1/2}

A = 1/2 \times (B+B+4y) \times y =(B+2y) y

R =\frac{A}{P}

P is perimeter =  (B+2\sqrt{5} y)

R =\frac{(3+2y) y}{(3+2\sqrt{5} y)}

Q = (2+2y) y) \times 1/0.015 [\frac{(3+2y) y}{(3+2\sqrt{5} y)}]^{2/3} 0.004^{1/2}

solving for y100 =(2+2y) y) \times (1/0.015) [\frac{(3+2y) y}{(3+2\sqrt{5} y)}]^{2/3} \times 0.004^{1/2}

solving for y value by using iteration method ,we get

y  ≈ 2.5

Water flows steadily through the pipe as shown below, such that the pressure at section (1) and at section (2) are 300 kPa and 1
steposvetlana [31]

Answer:

The velocity at section is approximately 42.2 m/s

Explanation:

For the water flowing through the pipe, we have;

The pressure at section (1), P₁ = 300 kPa

The pressure at section (2), P₂ = 100 kPa

The diameter at section (1), D₁ = 0.1 m

The height of section (1) above section (2), D₂ = 50 m

The velocity at section (1), v₁ = 20 m/s

Let 'v₂' represent the velocity at section (2)

According to Bernoulli's equation, we have;

z_1 + \dfrac{P_1}{\rho \cdot g} + \dfrac{v^2_1}{2 \cdot g} = z_2 + \dfrac{P_2}{\rho \cdot g} + \dfrac{v^2_2}{2 \cdot g}

Where;

ρ = The density of water = 997 kg/m³

g = The acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s²

z₁ = 50 m

z₂ = The reference = 0 m

By plugging in the values, we have;

50 \, m + \dfrac{300 \ kPa}{997 \, kg/m^3 \times 9.8 \, m/s^2} + \dfrac{(20 \, m/s)^2}{2 \times 9.8 \, m/s^2} = \dfrac{100 \ kPa}{997 \, kg/m^3 \times 9.8 \, m/s^2} + \dfrac{v_2^2}{2 \times 9.8 \, m/s^2}50 m + 30.704358 m + 20.4081633 m = 10.234786 m + \dfrac{v_2^2}{2 \times 9.8 \, m/s^2}

50 m + 30.704358 m + 20.4081633 m - 10.234786 m = \dfrac{v_2^2}{2 \times 9.8 \, m/s^2}

90.8777353 m = \dfrac{v_2^2}{2 \times 9.8 \, m/s^2}

v₂² = 2 × 9.8 m/s² × 90.8777353 m

v₂² = 1,781.20361 m²/s²

v₂ = √(1,781.20361 m²/s²) ≈ 42.204308 m/s

The velocity at section (2), v₂ ≈ 42.2 m/s
