Consider the following y-x graph of a wave's position. At time t = 0, x0 = 2.0 m, yo = 1.4 m, and ymax = 2.0 m. Using the graph, write the mathematical description of the y- position y(x,t) of the wave as a function of position x and time t if the period of motion is 2.0 s, and the wave moves to the right (toward the positive x-direction). Round the phase angle to two significant figures. +y max Yo y(x,t) = -y max y(m) x(m)

Determine the magnitude of the horizontal reaction (N) at A if P = 254 N and Q = 2395 N. Let x = 2.48 m, y = 2.5 m, and z = 2.05 m. Round off only on the final answer expressed in 3 decimal places. Instead of units, indicate the direction of the horizontal reaction at A: use R if to the right and L if to the left.
A sluice gate, which controls flow rate in a channel by simply raising or lowering a vertical plate, is commonly used in water irrigation systems. A force on the gate due to the difference between the water heights ??1 and ??2 and the flow velocities ??1 and ??2 upstream and downstream from the gate, respectively. For simplicity we may assume inviscid (frictionless) water flow. Obtain the horizontal force exerted by the flow on the vertical plate if ??1 =10 ft and ??2 = 3 ft. Take width of the sluice gate (into the page) to be ?? = 5 ft.
