Find "h" when the force is against the "stop" is a maximum. T=35.16 Gate width=1.2m Complete Solution
The system consists of a pipe with a diameter of 0.05m and a length of 4 m, and a hemisphere (radius 2 m) opened to the atmosphere, and the weight of the system is 50 kN. The lower part of the system is filled with water and the upper part with oil. The system is fixed to the base with 6 bolts. Calculate the force to be covered by each bolt required to hold the system (Note: oil 6867 N/m3, water = 9810 N/m3).
the pipe? [-2. A steel pipeline with a nominal diameter of 24 in has an ID of 22.624 in (575 mm) and a wall thickness of 0.688 in (17.5 mm) carries a flow of 28 ft3/s (794 L/s). The pipe makes a short-radius 90° turn. What is the force developed in a buttress at the bend? What stress would be developed in the pipe by this change in direction if no buttress were provided? -3. What is the maximum stress which could be produced in the pipe of Prob. 6-2 as a result of suddenly closing a valve in the line? (K for water is approximately 10 percent of the value of E for steel.)

Do not attempt wrong. Find the total pressure and center of pressure of a gate constructed across a channel which is 5m wide at the top and 2m at the bottom and 3m deep stating that the channel is fully filled with water. Total pressure =132.39kN Center of pressure = 1.82m These answer should match your solution.
