A car, travelling from Kangar to Padang Besar, has met an accident near the dam. The driver has managed to get out of the car and closed his door before the car lands at the bottom of the dam on its wheels. The door is 1.5-m high and 0.72-m wide, and the top edge of the door is 15-m below the water surface. [Sebuah kereta yang menuju ke Padang Besar dari Kangar telah menemukan satu kemalangan berhampiran dengan empangan ini. Pemandu berjaya keluar dari kereta dan menutup pintu kereta sebelum kereta jatuh ke dasar empangan dengan tayar di bahagian bawah. Pintu kereta adalah 1.5-m tinggi dan 0.72-m lebar, dan hujung atas pintu adalah 15-m di bawah permukaan air.] (iii) If the dam is filled to its full capacity, determine the hydrostatic force on the dam.

Figure 3 shows the plan view (top view) of a pair of gates which are hinged at the water channel walls. The channel has a depth of 9 m and a width of 40 m. When the gates close, the gate edges are forced together at the center of the channel by water pressure. While neglecting the weight of the gates determine: (a) The force exerted by the water on one gate (b) The magnitude and direction of the force components exerted by the gate in part (a) on the hinge. -Hinge Water 20°

A wooden barge of rectangular cross-section is 8 m wide, 4 m high, and 16 m long. It is transporting in seawater (s 1.03) a total load of 1,500 kN including its own weight and cargo. If a weight of 75 kN (Included in the 1,500-kN) is shifted a distance of 2.5 m to one side, it will cause the barge to go down 450 mm in the wdge of immersion and also rise 450 mm in the corresponding wedge of emersion The barge floats vertically (on an even keel) before the shifting of the weight.

(a) An open-topped rectangular metal boat containing sand as a ballast floats on water. The boat has a width of 200 mm, a length of 800 mm, a height of 500 mm and a mass of 10 kg. Determine the mass of sand (kg) required for the can to be immersed to a depth of 250 mm in water. How should the sand be distributed in the floating boat? (Density of water 1000 kg/m³, density of sand 1600 kg/m³). (b) A venturi meter, as shown in Figure Q5, is attached to a horizontal pipe through which oil (relative density 0.9) is flowing. The tube narrows from a cross-sectional area A, of 0.5 m² to a cross-sectional area A2 of 0.4 m². The difference in pressure between area 1 (A1 ) and area 2 ( A2 ) is Ap = 2.5 x 10-2MN/m². Calculate the volumetric flow rate and the velocity of the fluid as it passes through the two sections. A2 A1 P2 M) Figure Q5.
