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 'Help with Time-Independent Perturbation Theory "Good" States Proof'
(Disclaimer: this is not a HW question. I am self-studying, and this felt like the type of question I've seen in this forum. If there is somewhere better for me to share this doubt, please let me know and I'll transfer it right away.) I am currently reviewing Chapter 7 of Introduction to QM by Griffiths. I have been stuck for an hour or so trying to understand the last paragraph of this proof (pls check the attached file). It claims that we can express Ψ_{γ}(0) as a linear combination of...
Thread 'Stacked blocks & pulley system'
I've posted my attempt at a solution but I haven't gone through the whole process of putting together equations 1 -4 yet as I wanted to clarify if I'm on the right path My doubt lies in the formulation of equation 4 - the force equation for the stacked block. Since we don't know the acceleration of the masses and we don't know if mass M is heavy enough to cause m2 to slide, do we leave F_{12x} undetermined and not equate this to \mu_{s} F_{N} ? Are all the equations considering all...
