A pipeline conveying freshwater to a city has an internal diameter of 1.2m and external diameter of 1.25m. The pipeline is laid across the bed of a river with suitable anchorages at 3 m intervals along its length. The river water depth is 2.0m. Calculate the upward force on the anchorage when the pipeline is flowing full. Calculate the upward force on the anchorage when the pipeline is empty. Assume density of steel is 7900kg/m3 and that of water is 1000kg/m3

Answer-
Data that we have
Internal diameter Di = 120 cm = 1.20 m
External diameter Do= 125 cm = 1.25 m
River water depth = 2 m
Density of steel ρs = 7900 Kg/m3
Density of water = 1000 Kg/m3
Interval for anchorage = 3 m
Case first -
Pipe line is flowing full
Force of buoyancy per unit length = weight of displaced water for unit length
Force of buoyancy per unit length = (Π/4) Do
2 ρ g
Force of buoyancy per unit...
