Dams

This project has been jointly launched by Punjab, Haryana and Rajasthan. It is the biggest multi-purpose project in India, started in1948 and completed in 1968. This project derives its name from the two dams Bhakra and Sutlej, built on a tributary of the Indus, the Sutlej.

The Bhakra dam , constructed across the river Sutlej, is located at the foot of the Siwalik hills in Himachal Pradesh.The first prime minister of India, Late Pundit Jawaharlal Nehru dedicated this dam to the nation on 20th November, 1963. The Bhakra dam is the highest Concrete gravity dam in Asia and the second highest in the world. The Bhakra dam has played an important role in checking the floods in the river Sutlej.

The Nangal dam constructed across the river Sutlej, about 12 kilometres downstream is at Nangal in Punjab. This reservoir is used as a backup in case the Bhakra dam fluctuates.Storing the water of the Sutlej river coming from the Bhakra dam,the Nangal dam forms a 6 kilometre long artificial lake. Its Height is 29 metres(95 feet) and Length is 304.8 metres(1000feet) .

In the late 1890's, a masonry dam was started at the town of Niagara to develop power for a mill designed to make paper from straw. Construction of the dam was abandoned in 1912 after $100,000 had been spent. About this time, large numbers of Chinese workers were brought in to work on a rail line that was to be constructed over the Santiam Pass. This led to the belief by some that Chinese workers built the dam, misinformation that has kept the China Dam legend alive.

well there are a lot of answers to that

The Bhakra-Nangal Dam has been built on the Sutlej River.

Bhakra Nangal Dam is a dam across the Sutlej River, near the border between Punjab and Himachal Pradesh in northern India

This much.

It can be done, but it would require taking an integral for the moment of inertia of each particle of the disc... something i don't have the time to do right now ^^;

Kenya's largest dam, the Turkwel, has a height of 153 m, and retains a water volume of 1,641,000,000 m³.

None. A square acre is a measurement unit in 4-dimensional hyperspace. We do not live in space with 4 linear dimensions, only 3.
