A 50-cm wide wedge of 30° angle is used to deflect a flow of water (the width direction is into the paper). The incoming velocity of the water is 5 m/s and the water depth is 5 cm. Please compute the horizontal and vertical forces acting on the wedge from the water. In this example, water depth is shallow and you may neglect hydrostatic forces. Atmospheric pressure acts on the control volume from all directions and you do not need to consider atmospheric pressure, either, in the momentum balance. You may neglect frictions from the walls, too. 5 m/s 5 cm 5 cm Fx F y

Obtain an expression for the variation of pressure P with depth - assuming the density distribution to have the linear form, p(=) = p, + az, where Po is the density at the surface and a is a constant. The ambient pressure is Po. [Answer: P(z) = P, + gz(p. + az /2)]
A pressurized tank of water is used to create a fountain, as illustrated. Assume that the water's free surface area in the tank is very large relative to the pipe's cross-sectional area, which is circu- lar with diameter d 1.0 cm. The small pipe bend has height = 10.0 cm.
