Question 1.
What is the standard assumption for vertical flow at the bottom boundary in hydraulic engineering?
Show hintHide hint
Think about the interaction between the fluid and solid surface.
Question 2.
Can the free surface of water support pressure variations?
Show hintHide hint
Consider how waves distort the shape of the water surface.
3Question 3.

Show hintHide hint
Think about how the free surface behaves under wave action.
Question 5.
Design a scenario where the bottom boundary condition is critical for a dam's integrity during heavy rainfall. Discuss the effects of rising water on boundary conditions.
Show hintHide hint
Reflect on how increased pressure could affect structural strength.
Question 6.
Using the concepts of dynamic free surface conditions, explain how a sudden windstorm might alter the dynamics of water in a lake.
Show hintHide hint
Consider how external forces influence free surface behavior.
