    ZENRIR
    This document provides instructions and problems for Problem Set 1 of CE123 Hydraulics. It includes 7 multiple choice questions related to fluid mechanics concepts like flow through pipes, forces on gates, stresses on tanks, dam stability, and buoyancy. Students are instructed to show their work, write legibly, and box their final answers. The problems cover determining discharge through a tank, forces on a submerged circular gate, stresses in upper and lower tank hoops, stability of a concrete dam, tensions in reinforced tank hoops, and volume of an iceberg and submerged ice.

    Course Question Question


    Outcome #
    Codes
    CO2 1. An open cylindrical tank, 2.4 m in diameter and 6m tall has 1m of glycerin (sg=1.5), 2.5m of
    water, and 1.5m of oil (sg=0.82). Determine the discharge through the 125mm diameter located
    at the bottom of the tank. Assume C=0.65
    CO2 2. A vertical circular gate or radius r is submerged in a liquid with the top edged flushed on the
    liquid surface. Determine the magnitude and location of the total force acting on one side of the
    gate.
    CO2 3. A vertical cylindrical tank, open at the top, is filled with a liquid. Its sides are held in position by
    means of two steel hoops, one at the top and the other at the bottom. Determine the ratio of
    the stress in the upper hoop to that in the lower hoop.
    CO2 4. Find the width b of the rectangular concrete dam necessary to prevent the dam from sliding. The
    depth of water in one side is 4.5 m and the height of the dam is 6 meters. The sg of concrete is
    2.4 and the coefficient of friction between the base of the dam and the foundation is 0.4. Use
    1.5 as the factor of safety against sliding. Is the dam also safe from overturning?
    CO2 5. A vertical cylindrical tank, open at the top, is filled with a liquid. Its sides are held in position by
    means of two steel hoops, one at the top and the other at the bottom. Determine the ratio of
    the stress in the upper hoop to that in the lower hoop.
    CO2 6. A cylindrical tank container 8m high and 3m in diameter is reinforced with two hoops 1 meter
    from each end. When it is filled with water, what is the tension in each hoop due to water?
    CO2 7. An iceberg having specific gravity of 0.92 is floating on salt water on sp.g. 1.03. If the volume of
    ice above the water surface is 1000 cu.m., what is the total volume of the ice?
