A vertical dam has the form of an isosceles trapezoid with horizontal sides parallel. The dam is 30 m high, 20 m in its lower part and 30 m in its upper part. Finally, the dam retains 25 m of water, as indicated in the figure below. - 30 - wwwwwwwwwwwt - F-35 - +- 20 - a) Let y denote the height in meters measured from the base of the dam. The hydrostatic force exerted by the water on...
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....
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...

A large cylindrical water tank is mounted on a platform with its central axis vertical. The water level is 3.75 m above the base of the tank, and the diameter of the tanks is 2m. A small hole 2.22 mm in diameter has formed in the base of the tank. Both the hole and the top of the tank are open to the air. We can ignore air resistance and treat water as an ideal fluid with a density of...
