The force of the added water produces a torque on the dam. In a simple model, if the torque due to the water were enough to caus

e the dam to break free from its foundation, the dam would pivot about its base (point P). What is the magnitude τ of the torque about the point P due to the water in the reservoir?

Answer:

The appropriate response is "\tau=\frac{1}{6} PgLh^3". A further explanation is described below.

Explanation:

The torque (\tau) produced by the force on the dam will be:

⇒  d \tau=XdF

On applying integration both sides, we get

⇒  \tau = \int_{0}^{a}x pgL(h-x)dx

⇒     = pgL\int_{0}^{h}(h-x)dx

⇒     =pgL[\frac{h^3}{2} -\frac{h^3}{3} ]

⇒     =\frac{1}{6} PgLh^3

What happens to a day of light that slows down when it hits a new medium at an angle
Anika [276]
Light travels as transverse waves and faster than sound. It can be reflected, refracted and dispersed. Ray diagrams show what happens to light in mirrors and lenses. Eyes and cameras detect light.
