Dam Wall (7 marks) Fig 6 6. A circular gate AB of diameter 4 m is designed to close the water flowing out from the sloping wall of a dam structure. The gate is hinged at A as in Fig 6. Calculate (a) the magnitude of hydrostatic force acting on the circular gate and (b) the position of hydrostatic force from the water surface. (6 marks) 7. Using the data in Fig 7, (a) find va if vb is 3...
(c) Fuel oil, with a density of 870 kg m-, is pumped through a horizontal pipe, as shown in Figure Q2.2. The pipe is 100 mm in diameter and contains an orifice plate with a throat diameter of 40 mm. The pressure drop across the orifice is measured on a U-tube manometer, containing mercury with a specific gravity 13.6. The difference in levels of the columns is measured as 45 mm. The coefficient of discharge for the orifice plate Ca...
