Water, contained in a large open tank, discharges steadily into the atmosphere from a curved pipe. The tank rests on a smooth surface. To prevent it from sliding a horizontal flexible cable is to be connected to hooks on either the right or left side of the tank. Assuming the cable can only support a tensile force, would you connect it to the right or left side? What tensile force does the cable have to support? Assume the flow to be frictionless.

plzz help meeeeeeeeee The belt moves at a steady velocity V and skims the top of oil tank. Assuming a linear velocity profile in the oil, what is the required belt-drive power P (watt) (P= power = force x Velocity) if the belt moves at 3.5 m/s over oil with specific gravity of S=3.6 and oil viscosity of 0.004 m2/s. Belt geometry L= 2 m, b = 60 cm, and oil depth is h = 3 cm?
A pipe inclined at 45° to the horizontal (Fig. 2) converges over a length l of 2 m from a diameterd1 of 200 mm to a diameter d2 of 100 mm at the upper end. Oil of relative density 0.9 flowsthrough the pipe at a mean velocity ?̅1 at the lower end of 2 m/s. Find the pressure differenceacross the 2 m length ignoring any loss of energy, and the difference in level that would beshown on a mercury manometer connected across this length. The relative density of mercury is 13.6 and the leads to the manometer arefilled with the oil.
A constant-velocity horizontal water jet from a stationary nozzle impinges normally on a vertical flat plate that rides on a nearly frictionless track. As the water jet hits the plate, it begins to move due to the water force. Will the acceleration of the plate remain constant or change? Explain.
Discuss which dimensionless pump performance parameter is typically used as the independent parameter. Repeat for turbines instead of pumps. Explain.
Piston A has a cross-section of 1,200 cm^2 while that of piston B is 950 cm^2 with the latter higher than piston A by 1.75 m. If the intervening passages are filled with oil (s= 0.8), what is the difference in pressure between A and B?
When a jet of water gushing from a short pipe with a diameter of D= 5 cm, located at a depth of h= 6.6 m from the surface of a fixed level reservoir shown in the figure, hits a horizontal plate that makes an angle of 30o with the jet axis (friction effects are neglected), a)Determine the scalar value and direction of the impact force exerted by the water on the plate (Enter the numerical value of the direction you think is correct in the direction-number image in Figure 3 in the box named "Direction-effect". For example: '1' will be entered for the upward direction). b)Determine the scalar value of the reaction force of the plate and determine its direction (Enter the numerical value of the direction you think is correct in the direction-number image given in Figure 3 in the box named "Direction-reaction". For example: '1' will be entered for the upward direction).

The horizontal tube is 1 m long and 10 cm in diameter and is filled with a sample material. During a test, the upstream head h, falls from 200 to 180 cm in 4 hr, while h₂ is held constant at 15 cm. The diameter of vertical tube in which h, is measured is 40 cm. What is the indicated average hydraulic conductivity?

The counterweight pivot gate shown in Fig. 2.85 controls the flow from a tank. The gate is rectangular and is 3 m x 2 m. Determine the value of the counterweight W such that the upstream water can be 1.5 m deep. Fig. 2.85 Problem 2.27
Centrifugal pump is a kinetic device and uses the centrifugal force to push out the fluid. So the liquid entering the pump receives kinetic energy from the rotating impeller. The centrifugal action of the impeller accelerates the liquid to a high velocity, transferring mechanical (rotational) energy to the liquid. What makes Centrifugal Pump not to beclassified as a Positive Displacement Type of Pump? Is that the reason why cavitation will occur in centrifugal pumps and not in Displacement pump?
