The (a) part can be solved by conserving volume of the liquid . (Think about rate of change of volume !)
 
heya, A was okay actually. The main problems I have are with B onwards !

Thank you for your viewership :)
 
Okay, so I was told that my homework request was an unreasonable one and hence, I have looked through the forum rules. I shall abide by them ! So sorry for being ignorant.

Homework Statement


See Above

Homework Equations


Bernoulli Equation: V2/2g + p/dg + z = constant
V = velocity of particles flowing through that point of the streamline
g = acceleration due to gravity
p = pressure at that point of the streamline
d = density
z = elevation at that point of the streamline

The Attempt at a Solution



(a) V = H0B = bh + (B-b)H
H=(BH0-bh)/(B-b)

(b) By conservation of volume,
Discharge, Q = W.Ab = Ub.Af
Q = W.b = Ub.h

Therefore, Ub = bW/h

(c) Since gap-averaged flow from x=0 to x=b is a well-behaved flow, dU(x)/dx = 0

(d)
At point x=b: Ub/2g + dg(H-h)/dg + h = constant

From here, I'm really not too sure how to proceed.

Any help would be greatly appreciated ! Thank you !
 
Thread 'Need help understanding this figure on energy levels'
This figure is from "Introduction to Quantum Mechanics" by Griffiths (3rd edition). It is available to download. It is from page 142. I am hoping the usual people on this site will give me a hand understanding what is going on in the figure. After the equation (4.50) it says "It is customary to introduce the principal quantum number, ##n##, which simply orders the allowed energies, starting with 1 for the ground state. (see the figure)" I still don't understand the figure :( Here is...
Thread 'Understanding how to "tack on" the time wiggle factor'
The last problem I posted on QM made it into advanced homework help, that is why I am putting it here. I am sorry for any hassle imposed on the moderators by myself. Part (a) is quite easy. We get $$\sigma_1 = 2\lambda, \mathbf{v}_1 = \begin{pmatrix} 0 \\ 0 \\ 1 \end{pmatrix} \sigma_2 = \lambda, \mathbf{v}_2 = \begin{pmatrix} 1/\sqrt{2} \\ 1/\sqrt{2} \\ 0 \end{pmatrix} \sigma_3 = -\lambda, \mathbf{v}_3 = \begin{pmatrix} 1/\sqrt{2} \\ -1/\sqrt{2} \\ 0 \end{pmatrix} $$ There are two ways...
