A landscape architect is planning an artificial waterfall in a city park. Water flowing at 0.750 m/s leaves the end of a horizontal channel at the top of a vertical wall h = 2.35 m high and falls into a pool (Fig. P3.54). (a) How far from the wall will the water land? Will the space behind the waterfall be wide enough for a pedes- trian walkway? (b) To sell her plan to the city council, the architect wants to build a model Figure P3.54 to standard scale, one-twelfth actual size. How fast should the water flow in the channel in the model?

A landscape architect is
planning an artificial waterfall
in a city park. Water flowing at
0.750 m/s leaves the end of a
horizontal channel at the top
of a vertical wall h = 2.35 m
high and falls into a pool (Fig.
P3.54). (a) How far from the
wall will the water land? Will
the space behind the waterfall
be wide enough for a pedes-
trian walkway? (b) To sell her
plan to the city council, the architect wants to build a model
Figure P3.54
to standard scale, one-twelfth actual size. How fast should the
water flow in the channel in the model?

A small, battery-powered, electric motorboat that can travel at a speed of 1.80 m/s in still water is operating in a river with a flow speed of 1.35 m/s. For each of the following two cases, determine the requested information for a river that is 220 m wide. (a) Case 1: when the boat is pointed straight across the river, determine the speed Vbl of the boat as viewed by someone on land, the distance d the boat is swept downstream before reaching the other side, and the time t it takes the boat to make the crossing. Vbl = m/s d = t1 = (b) Case 2: if the boat operator wants to land the boat straight across the river from the launch site, determine the speed Vbl of the boat as viewed by someone on land, the angle ß upstream at which the boat should be pointed, and the time t2 it takes the boat to make the crossing. Vbl = m/s ß = t2 = S

A car comes to a bridge during a storm and finds the bridge washed out. The driver must get to the other side, so he decides to try leaping it with his car. The side the car is on is 20.3 mm above the river, whereas the opposite side is a mere 1.6 mm above the river. The river itself is a raging torrent 57.0 mm wide.
