A 3-m diameter roller gate retains water on both sides of a dam crest as shown below. Axes (x,y) are given in the diagram to indicate the convention for positive values. The origin of your coordinate system (O) is at the base of the roller gate where it contacts the dam. Indicate direction of Forces either with an arrow, writing the direction (ie. Right/left or up/down) or +/- sign indicating what way is positive based on the axes definition given....

(ans: 21.43 mm) 2. A steel cable with a nominal diameter of 25 mm is used in a construction yard to lift a bridge section weighing 38 kN. The cable has an...
10. Write a one-page summary of the attached paper? INTRODUCTION Many problems can develop in activated sludge operation that adversely affect effluent quality with origins in the engineering, hydraulic and microbiological components of the process. The real "heart" of the activated sludge system is the development and maintenance of a mixed microbial culture (activated sludge) that treats wastewater and which can be managed. One definition of a wastewater treatment plant operator is a "bug farmer", one who controls the aeration...
