system depends only on the initial and final states of the system (→ change in energy).

4-11. Derive the equation for the volume rate of flow per unit width for the sluice gate

shown in Fig. 4-20 in terms of the geometric variable b , y1 , and cc . Assume the pressure

in hydrostatic at y1 and ccb and the velocity is constant over the depth at each of these

sections.

4-12. Derive the expression for the total force per unit width exerted by the above sluice gate

on the fluid in terms of vertical distances shown in Fig. 4-20.

4-14. Consider the flow of an incompressible fluid through the Venturi meter shown in Fig. 4-

22. Assuming uniform flow at sections (1) and (2) neglecting all losses, find the pressure

difference between these sections as a function of the flow rate Q , the diameters of the

sections, and the density of the fluid,  . Note that for a given configuration, Q is a

function of only the pressure drop and fluid density. The meter is named for Venturi, who

investigated its principle in about 1791. However, in 1886 Clemens Herschel first used the

meter to measure discharge, and he is usually credited with its invention.

pipe as shown in Fig. 4-23. The rates of inflow and outflow are the same, and the water

the pipe exit is H L . (a) Find the discharge Q in terms of h , A , and H L . (b) What is the
