BUOYANCY PROB:

A barge is loaded with 150 tons at coal. The weight of the empty barge in air is 35 tons, if the barge is 18
ft wide, 52 ft long and 9ft high. What is the draft.

Given: W of empty barge = 35 tons Width = 18 ft

Length = 52 ft Height = 9 ft
W of coal in barge = 150 tons

Req’d: draft or d = ?

CONTINUITY PROB:

WATER FLOWS AT A pipe having a diameter of 95 mm with a velocity of 5 m/s. find the

A, volume flow rate (m^3/s)

b. mass flow rate (kg/s)

c. weight flow rate (n/s)

Given: diameter of pipe 95 mm velocity = 5 m/s

Req’d: volume flow rate, mass flow rate and weight flow rate
