A dam on a river is built so that the wall facing the water is shaped like the region above the curve y=0.1x4�=0.1�4 and below the line y=260�=260. (Here, distances are measured in meters.) The water level is 2828 meters below the top of the dam. Find the force (in Newtons) exerted on the dam by water pressure. (Water has a density of 1000kgm31000kg�3, and the acceleration of gravity is 9.8msec29.8�sec2 .)

- Dwarf Fortress. A group of dwarves made an outpost far from their homeland, "Moria, Middle-Earth". They have set-up the outpost near the river. In order to attract adventurers to their outpost, they constructed an underground tavern below (height h1 = 50m) the river. They dug a tunnel and an artificial cistern. Just above = this cistern (height h2= 10m) is the underground tavern. Using Bernoulli's equation and Fluid dynamics, explain if this plan is going to work or not. Meaning, explain if the water will pour out of the cistern into the tavern. If this plan is not going to work, what will be your suggestions (Dwarves live underground. They refuse to create the tavern on the surface)arrow_forward5. An engineer is planning to use gabion retaining wall to protect a section of Kennon road from landslide. A gabion is a wire mesh container filled with rocks. The engineer must estimate the volume of the rock to be used. If the gabion wall will have a thickness of 5ft, estimate the volume of the rocks given the measured depth of the wall every 10 ft of its width based from the road level. width, ft 10 20 30 40 50 60 70 80 90 depth, ft 5 12 20 18 17 13 10 5 a.) estimate the area of the wall using multiple trapezoidal rule with n=9 b.) estimate the area of the wall using single application of Simpson's 3/8 rule c.) estimate the volume of the rocks to be used using the area in a.) and b.)arrow_forward1 0 Calculate the total volume of the cylindrical component below (not to scale): L1 D1- D1 = 1.12 cm D2 = 0.71 cm D3 = 1.58 cm L1 = 18.68 cm L2 = 15.36 cm L3=13.77 cm L4 = 9.77 cm Answer: Check L2 L3 L4 D2- What is the volume of the cylindrical component?

- A guy who works out at your gym found out that you are an engineer and has hired you do an analysis comparing two versions of a similar exercise: lateral raises. He wants to compare using dumbbells (as in Fig 1) versus using a cable machine (as in Fig 2). Develop an equation for each case for the moment about the shoulder as a function of angle. (0 to 90 horizontally) You will use your own dimensions for this analysis. You will need to measure: Arm length from shoulder joint to palm of your hand Height from shoulder joint to the ground Wingspan with arms held horizontally (palm-to-palm) You can use any measurements for the dimensions, just need the equations and FBD Fig 1: Dumbbell Lateral Raises Fig 2: Cable Lateral Raisesarrow_forwardThe area information is given as following.
