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.

To save energy, the air supply to a 2000 ft office has been shut off overnight and the room temperature has dropped to 40°f. in the morning, the thermostat is reset to 70°f and warm air at 120 f begins to flov in at 200ft'/min. the air is well mixed within the room, and an equal mass flow of air at room temperature (changing with time) is withdrawn through a return duct. the air pressure is nearly 1 atm everywhere. ignoring heat transfer with the surroundings and kinetic and potential energy effects, estimate how long it takes for the room temperature to reach 70°f. plot the room temperature as a function of time.
