Water in an irrigation ditch of width w = 3.22 m and depth d =1.04 m flows with a speed of 0.207 m/s.The mass flux of the flowing water through an imaginary surface is the product of the water’s density (1000 kg/m3) and its volume flux through that surface. Find the mass flux through the following imaginary surfaces: (a) a surface of area wd, entirely in the water, perpendicular to the flow; (b) a surface with area 3wd/2, of which wd is in the water, perpendicular to the flow; (c) a surface of area wd/2, entirely in the water, perpendicular to the flow; (d) a surface of area wd, half in the water and half out, perpendicular to the flow; (e) a surface of area wd, entirely in the water, with its normal 34.0° from the direction of flow.

(b) a surface with area 3wd/2, of which wd is in the water, perpendicular
to the flow; (c) a surface of area wd/2, entirely in the water, perpendicular

half out, perpendicular to the flow; (e) a surface of area wd, entirely in
