Aseawall with an opening is used to dampen the tidal influence in a coastal area (and limit erosion). the seawall is 2.5 m long (in the direction perpendicular to the page), the mean sea level on the sea side is 2.2 m above the centroid of the slot. the mean sea level on the land side of the wall is 1.4 m above the centroid of the slot. the sea side tide fluctuates +0.6 m, and the landward tide fluctuates +0.4 m.
the slot extends the entire length of the wall and is estimated to have a discharge coefficient of 0.80.

if the volume of seawater moving from the sea side to the land side of the wall is to be no more than 6 000 m' in 18 hours, what is the maximum allowable height of the slot?

note: the discharge coefficient is the ratio of the actual flow rate over the predicted flow rate. it mostly accounts for the fact that the average velocity is different from the velocity.

Liquid flows at steady state at a rate of 2 lb/'s through a pump, which operates to raise the elevation of the liquid 100 ft from control volume inlet to exit. the liquid specific enthalpy at the inlet is 40.09 btu/lb and at the exit is 40.94 btub. the pump requires 3 btu/s of power to operate. if kinetic energy effects are negligible and gravitational acceleration is 32.174 tt/s, the heat transfer rate associated with this steady state process is most closely 1)-2,02 btu/s from the liquid to the surroundings 2)-3.98 btu/s from the surroundings to the liquid. 3)-4.96 btu/s from the surroundings to the liquid. 4)-1.04 btu/s from the liquid to the surroundings.
