As a civil engineering student, you may work after graduation at one of the municipal projects in your city, and it supposed you have an L-shaped gate hinged at O and located at the end of the reservoir to control the flowrate into a pipe to feed water to the city, as shown in the figure below. The pressure inside the pipe is atmospheric. Determine the minimum water depth h at which the water starts flowing into the pipe.

. A proposed elevated tank for a certain community has a diameter of 72 inches and a height of 8.930 feet. It is to draw water by a pump from an aquifer down below the ground. Two steel hoops, 24.4 in2 in cross section, are installed around the tank, one at the bottom and one at the top, to prevent the bursting of the tank by the water pressure inside. (Use unit weight of water, water = 62.4 lb/ft3 ) a) Compute the internal stress at the bottom of the tank (in psf). b) Determine the tensile stress at the top (in psi). c) Determine the tensile stress at the bottom (in psi).
