Write the categories of a spillway according to the most prominent feature
A 2-ft-diameter hemispherical plexiglass "bubble" is to be used as a special window on the side of an above-ground swimming pool. The window is to be bolted onto the vertical wall of the pool and faces outward, covering a 2-ft-diameter opening in the wall. The center of the opening is 4.1 ft below the surface. Determine the (a) horizontal and (b) vertical components of the force of the water on the hemisphere. (a) FH = (b) Fy= lb (outward) (down on bubble)
For the sluice gate shown, if Cv=0.90 what is the flow rate? If Cc=0.71 what is the height of the opening?
Please help I need the solution urgently. Thank you
