In water-resources engineering, the sizing of reservoirs depends on accurate estimates of water ow in the river that is being impounded. For some rivers, long-term historical records of such ow data are difficult to obtain. In contrast, meteorological data on precipitation is often available for many years past. Therefore, it is often useful to determine a relationship between flow and precipitation. This relationship can then be used to estimate flows for years when only precipitation measurements were made. The following data are available for a river that is to be dammed:
Precipitation, cm 88.9 108.5 104.1 139.7 127 94 116.8 99.1
Flow, m^3/s 14.6 16.7 15.3 23.2 19.5 16.1 18.1 16.6
(a) Plot these data.
(b) Fit a straight line to these data with linear regression. Superimpose this line on your plot.
(c) Use the best-t line to predict the annual water ow if the precipitation is 120 cm.
(d) If the drainage area is 1100 km2, estimate what fraction of the precipitation is lost via processes such as evaporation, deep groundwater infiltration, and consumptive use.

Asingle-geared blanking press has a stroke of 200 mm and a rated capacity of 320 kn. a cam driven ram is assumed to be capable of delivering the full press load at constant force during the last 15 percent of a constant-velocity stroke. the camshaft has an average speed of 90 rev/min and is geared to the flywheel shaft at a 6: 1 ratio. the total work done is to include an allowance of 16 percent for friction a) estimate the maximum energy fluctuation b) find the rim weight for an effective diameter of 1.2 m and a coefficient of speed fluctuation of 0.10
