Question- A rectangular channel of 3 m width is carrying a discharge of 6 m³/s considering that acceleration due to gravity is 10 m/s², find the velocity of flow in m/s corresponding to the critical depth at which specific energy is minimum.
A pontoon 6m x 6m x 3m floats in water with a draft of 2m. The orifice at the bottom of the pontoon is 160mm in diameter with a coefficient of discharge of C= 0.60. Determine the time required for the pontoon to sink its top after opening the orifice at the bottom.
A horizontal jet of 57 liters/sec strikes tangentially on one or another of a series of moving curved vanes, each having a deflection angle of 60 degrees. The water as it leaves the vane has an absolute velocity of 12 m/sec and makes an angle of 30 degrees with the horizontal. (a) Determine the horizontal force exerted on the vanes. (b) Determine the power developed.
A trapezoidal channel has a bottom width of 6 m and a side slope of 1:1. The depth of flow is 2 m at a discharge of 24 m3/s. What would be the specific energy? Consider g=10 m/s2.
A rectangular open channel of 6 m width is carrying a discharge of 20 m³/s. Consider the acceleration due to gravity as 9.81 m/s² and assume water as incompressible and inviscid. The depth of flow in the channel at which the specific energy of the flowing water is minimum for the given discharge will then be (a) 3.18 m (c) 2.56 m (b) 1.04 m (d) 0.82 m

An orifice having an area of 0.0003 m2 is located on the vertical side of a tank. The tank has a constant cross-sectional area of 0.40 m2. It takes 312 seconds to lower the head from 1.20 m to 0.60 m. Determine the following:a. Coefficient of dischargeb. The time to lower the head from 1.20 m to 0.80 m when C = 0.60.c. The head after 240 seconds from an initial head of 1.20 m when C = 0.60
A 50 mm diameter siphon discharges water from a reservoir (Point 1 elev = 20m) into open air (Point 3 elev. 10m). The head loss from the reservoir (point 1) to the summit (point 2 elev = 28m) is 3 times the velocity head in the siphon and head loss from the summit to the discharge end is 4 times the velocity head in the siphon. Determine the velocity in the siphon in m/s? 3 The correct answer has a margin of 0.05 from the exact answer. TOCUL T OWCT. 7:13 PM 27°C Rain showers 入口の ENG 04/10/2021
