plzzzzzzz help What is the minimum Block mass (kg) that is required to open the gate A-B? The density of water is 1000 kg/m3 and the density of the block is 8000 kg/m3. The specific gravity of oil is 0.9. The depth of the gate is not required. The external force that effects the gate at point A is Fe=3000 N, while the hydrostatic force Fh=9313.8 N
A triangular wooden body (S=0.80) is placed in water in theposition indicated in the figure. If the width of the body is 7.0 m,determine if the same for this position is stable or not indicating themetacentric height (YM).
The density of a floating body can be determined by tying weights to the body until both the body and the weights are completely submerged, and then weighing them separately in air. Consider a wood log that weighs 1540 N in air. If it takes 34 kg of lead (r 5 11,300 kg/m3) to completely sink the log and the lead in water, determine the average density of the log.
EMERGENCY!!!! The cover in the figure is hinged at the center O and has a fixed width w = 5 m. The equation of the surface is x = y2 / a (a = 3 m), the depth of the water to the right of the lid (D = 4 m). If the weight of the lid is neglected, it is necessary to keep the lid in balance. Find the size of the force (Fa) required, as shown. Take the density of the water as 999 kg / m3.
A 4-m-high, 5-m-wide rectangular plate blocks the end of a 4-m-deep freshwater channel, as shown inthe Figure 2 below. The plate is hinged about a horizontal axis along its upper edge through a point Aand is restrained from opening by a fixed ridge at point B. Determine the force exerted on the plate bythe ridge. Clearly state all asuumptions and illustrations.
A 6-m-high, 5-m-wide rectangular plate blocks the end of a 5-m-deep freshwater channel, as shown . The plate is hinged about a horizontal axis along its upper edge through a point A and is restrained from opening by a fixed ridge at point B. Using appropriate software, investigate the effect of water depth on the force exerted on the plate by the ridge. Let the water depth vary from 0 to 5 m in increments of 0.5 m. Tabulate and plot your results.
