Please answer all parts urgently
The uniform fluid flow in the figure from 1 to 2 is steady and incompressible. External force, F is applied to keep the gate stationary and, F value needs to be ascertained. a) Draw the relevant control volume to ascertain the holding force, F. b) If water flows along straight streamlines at sections 1 and 2, what would be the vertical pressure distribution in sections 1 and 2 ? Draw the pressure distributions in sections 1 and 2, neglecting the effects of atmospheric pressure. Hint: Bernoulli equation across the streamlines is: P+??RV2?dn+?gZ= Constant, where R is the local radius of curvature of the streamlines and n is the normal direction. c) Neglecting the effects of atmospheric pressure and assuming that the water flows along straight streamlines at sections 1 and 2 , obtain expressions for the pressure forces at sections 1 and 2 . d) Determine the momentum flux through sections 1 and 2 . e) Ascertain the h1?/h2? ratio. f) Neglecting frictional forces caused by the bottom horizontal solid surface, obtain a function for F using the outlet velocity, V2? other given parameters, fluid density and gravitational acceleration. g) Once the gate shown in the figure is closed (1.e. h2? is zero), determine the new holding force, F by writing the linear momentum equation for a suitable control volume. Indicate your assumptions. h) By comparing the expressions in parts f and g, is the holding force, F larger when the gate is closed or open? Explain this result using the relevant momentum fluxes at sections 1 and 2 .
