![A landscape architect is planning an artificial waterfall in a city park. Water flowing at 0.536 m/s will leave the end of a
horizontal channel at the top of a vertical wall h = 2.40 m high and falls into a pool (see figure).
(a) How far from the wall will the water land?
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
No
(b) To sell her plan to the city council, the architect wants to build a model to standard scale, one-fifteenth actual
size. How fast should the water flow in the channel in the model?
