This question is incomplete, the complete question is;
Consider the cylindrical weir of diameter 3m and length 6m. If the fluid on the left has a specific gravity of 1.6 and on the right has a specific gravity of 0.8, Find the magnitude and direction of the resultant force.
Answer:
- the magnitude of the resultant force is 557.32 kN
- the direction of resultant force is 48.29°
Explanation:
Given the data in the question and the diagram below,
First we work on the force on the left hand side.
Left Horizontal
= βgAr
here, h = 3/2 = 1.5 m, β = 1.6, g = 9.81 m/s², A = 3 m × 6 m = 18 m²
we substitute
= βgAh = ( 1.6 × 1000 ) × 9.81 × 18 × 1.5 = 423792 N
Left Vertical
= ( βgπh² / 2 ) × W
we substitute
= [ ( ( 1.6 × 1000 ) × 9.81 × π(1.5)² ) / 2 ] × 6 = 332845.458 N
Now we go to the right hand side
Right Horizontal
= βgAh
here, h' = 1.5/2 = 0.75 m, β = 0.8, g = 9.81 m/s², A = 1.5 m × 6 m = 9 m²
we substitute
= ( 0.8 × 1000 ) × 9.81 × 9 × 0.75 ) = 52974 N
Right Vertical
= ( βgπh² / 4 ) × W
we substitute
= [ ( ( 0.8 × 1000 ) × 9.81 × π(1.5)² ) / 4 ] × 6 = 83211.36 N
Hence
Fx = -
= 52974 N - 423792 N = 370818 N
Fy = +
= 332845.458 N + 83211.36 N = 416056.818 N
R = √( Fx² + Fy² ) = √[ (370818 N)² + (416056.818 N)² ] = 557323.3 N
R = 557.32 kN
Therefore, the magnitude of the resultant force is 557.32 kN
Direction of resultant force;
tanθ = Fy / Fx
we substitute
tanθ = 416056.818 N / 370818 N
tanθ = 1.121997
θ = tan⁻¹( 1.121997 )
θ = 48.29°
Therefore, the direction of resultant force is 48.29°
