A landscape architect is planning an artificial waterfall in a city park. Water flowing at 1.70 m/s will leave the end of a horizontal channel at the top of a vertical wall h = 2.35 m high, and from there it will fall into a pool (Fig. P3.42). (a) Will the space behind the waterfall be wide enough for a pedestrian walkway? (b) To sell her plan to the city council, the architect wants to build a model to standard scale, which is one-twelfth actual size. How fast should the water flow in the channel in the model?

1. The speed of a boat in still water is vb. A river flows with a speed of vr. The boat travels distance of 25 miles downstream in a river in 1 hour. However, the return journey takes 2 hours. Calculate the vand v₁. Hint: Velocity=displacement/time. Displacement can be positive of neagtive depending on the direction. You will first need to set up the equations by taking into account the resultant velocity of the boat in flowing water. Consider the direction the river is flowing to be positive. Set up two equations, one for the downstream journey and one for the upstream journey, in terms of "v" and "v": Do v" and "v, add or substract downstream to give the resultant downstream velocity? Do v" and "v, add or substract upstream togive the resultant upstream velocity? Use the upstream direction as negative. The resultant upstream velocity should be negative. vb vb Downstream positive Vr Upstream negative vr Write an algebraic expression; do not use numerical values except for the angles.…
1) A man flies a small airplane from Fargo to Bismarck, North Dakota—a distance of 180 mi. Because he is flying into a head wind, the trip takes him 2 h. On the way back, the wind is still blowing at the same speed, so the return trip takes only 1 h 15 min. What is his speed in still air, and how fast is the wind blowing? a. what is the speed (mph) in still air? b. wind speed (mph)? 2)A boat on a river travels downstream between two points, 60 mi apart, in 1 h. The return trip against the current takes 2 1/2 hours. a. What is the boat's speed (in still water)? b. How fast does the current river flow?
