A rectangular channel 6 m wide with a depth of flow of 3m has a mean velocity of 1.5 m/sec. The channel undergoes a smooth, grad

ual contraction to a width of 4.5 m. (a) Calculate the depth and velocity in the contracted section (Hint: y2 is between 2.6~2.9m). (b) Calculate the net fluid force on the walls and floor of the contraction in the flow direction. In each case, identify any assumptions that you made.

Answer:

The answer for (1) 2.07 m/s (2) F= 63.8kN

Explanation:

Solution

By applying the energy equation from the approach  section 1 to the contacted section 2 with negligible head losses and assuming a horizontal bottom

we have y₁ + V₁²/ 2g = y₂ +  q₂²/2gy₂²

Where

q is =flow rate

y = the depth

g = the acceleration

Kindly find an attached copy of the final solution for this question.

To 3 significant digits, what is the temperature of water in degrees C, if its pressure is 350 kPa and the quality is 0.01
liq [111]

Answer:

138.9 °C

Explanation:

The datum of quality is saying to us that liquid water is in equilibrium with steam. Saturated water table gives information about this liquid-vapour equilibrium. In figure attached, it can be seen that at 350 kPa of pressure (or 3.5 bar) equilibrium temperature is 138.9 °C

Which statement about tensile stress is true? A. Forces that act perpendicular to the surface and pull an object apart exert a t
svp [43]

Answer:

A. Forces that act perpendicular to the surface and pull an object apart exert a tensile stress on the object.

Explanation:

Tensile stress is referred as a deforming force, in which force acts perpendicular to the surface and pull an object apart, attempting to elongate it.

The tensile stress is a type of normal stress, in which a perpendicular force creates the stress to an object’s surface.

Hence, the correct option is "A."

When a circuit has more resistance, what happens to current flow ?
zloy xaker [14]
The relationship between resistance and the area of the cross section of a wire is inversely proportional . When resistance is increased in a circuit , for example by adding more electrical components , the current decreases as a result.

What is the instantaneous center of zero velocity? List two approaches for determining the is the instantaneous center of zero v
Lera25 [3.4K]

Explanation:

Instantaneous center:

   It is the center about a body moves in planer motion.The velocity of Instantaneous center is zero and Instantaneous center can be lie out side or inside the body.About this center every particle of a body rotates.

From the diagram

Where these two lines will cut then it will the I-Center.Point A and B is moving perpendicular to the point I.

If we take three link link1,link2 and link3 then I center of these three link will be in one straight line It means that they will be co-linear.

I_{12},I_{23},I_{31} all\ are\ co-linear.
