Question

A landscape architect is planning an artificial waterfall in a city park. Water flowing at 0.562 m/s will leave the end of a horizontal channel at the top of a vertical wall h = 2.25 m

(a) How far from the wall will the water land?

find m

 

Will the space behind the waterfall be wide enough for a pedestrian walkway? (Assume the water must land 2 m from the wall to provide adequate space for a person to walk beneath the waterfall.)

Yes or No ?

(b) To sell her plan to the city council, the architect wants to build a model to standard scale, one-seventeenth actual size. How fast should the water flow in the channel in the model?

Find m/s

Please show me how you got the answer, thank you :)
