A calibration test of a 12.7 mm circular sharp-edged orifice in the vertical side of a large tank showed a discharge of 587 N of water in 81 seconds at a constant head of 4.70 meters. Measurement of the water jet showed that it traveled 2.35 meters horizontally while dropping 30.50 centimeters. Determine the three orifice coefficients and draw the figure. Note: determine each coefficient independent from the other coefficients, solve them as equal to the ratio of the actual quantity to the theoretical quantity. No credit points for direct formula substitution solutions.
When testing the model of a hydraulic spillway (the hydraulic spillway or spillway is a hydraulic structure intended to promote the passage, free or controlled, of water in surface currents, the spillway being exclusively for drainage, it dominated exclusively by the force of gravity) at scale 1: 25, the flow rate in one model was 0.1m3/s. a) To what flow rate of the prototype do they correspond? b) If it takes a particle 1.0 minute to go from one point to another in the model, how long will it take a similar particle to travel the same path, but in the prototype?

A manometer consists of a tube of 0.5 inch in the inner diameter and an amount of mercury (SG Hg =13.55). On one side of the tube, oil (SG=1.4) was trapped, a bubble formed, and the fluid inside was stationary. The volume of the oil was 0.6 in^3 and the volume of the air was 0.2 in^3. Now, the oil and bubble are removed. The pressure change across the air bubble is negligible and any curvature on the bubble surface can be neglected in calculating the volumes. Determine how much the mercury height rises (i.e. h 4 -h 2 ).
