The tank in the figure is open to the environment and divided into two compartments, connected by the flat gate C-D (2 m long), which can rotate around C. In the compartment on the left there is a level of 4.30 m of water at 20°C, which makes gate C-D remain in equilibrium (that is, Rx = 0 in D), compensating for the effect of the penstock's own weight (9000 N/m2), as well as the hydrostatic force caused by water from the compartment on the right. Under these conditions and knowing that the deposit has a width of 1 meter, calculate: a) The water level, H, in the compartment on the right, b) The reactions in the supports of the gate A-B, knowing that the gate can rotate on support A, and is simply supported in b h=4.30 m D RD = 0 45° L = 2m C H A B R=1.5 m

A cylindrical drum of length l and radius r can rotate inside a fixed concentric cylindrical casing, the clearance space c between the drum and the casing being very small and filled with liquid of dynamic viscosity µ. To rotate the drum with angular velocity o requires the same power as to pump the liquid axially through the clearance space while the drum is stationary, and the pressure difference between the ends of the drum is p. The motion in both cases is laminar. Neglecting end effects, show that 2µlro/3 p = c2
