Minor amendments to model solutions
Many thanks to all who have pointed out minor errors etc. in the solutions. These changes have been made to the pdfs, but not to the scanned versions available here.
- Sheet 3 Answer to Q4. The denominator of the RHS of eqn (*) should be h_{2}, not h_{1}.
- Sheet 3 Answer to Q6. The integrand of the integral representing rate of change of momentum (per unit width) should be rho*u*h (h is missing).
- Sheet 5 Q2. The density rho should be assumed to be constant.
- Sheet 5 Q2. The final term in the last equation should be 2cdc/dx.
