You and your father are designing a waterfall for your backyard swimming pool. At the top of the waterfall is a tank containing water that is kept to a depth d = 0.280 m by a pump. As shown, there is a small hatch of height h = 0.100 m and width w = 0.150 m, hinged at the top, that can be used to turn on and turn off the supply of water to the waterfall. You want to attach a simple latch at the center of the bottom of the hatch and are trying to decide what type of latch to buy at your local hardware store. To make that decision, you need to determine the force that the latch must be able to withstand to keep the hatch closed.
A water tank of constant depth H, open to the atmosphere, is connected to the piping system, as shown in Figure P8.45. After a length of pipe L of diameter D, the diameter decreases smoothly to a value of D/2 and then continues on for another length L before exiting to atmosphere. The flow is turbulent and the friction factor f is the same for all piping. CD1 and CD2 are the loss coefficients for the entry and exit. Calculate the depth of the tank required to produce a mean exit velocity of V .  
(a) Determine the work done on a fluid that expands from i to f as indicated in Figure P12.10. (b) How much work is done on the fluid if it is compressed from f to i along the same path?
