217. A 20°C water jet leaves the nozzle shown in Fig. P4.217 with velocity V₁ = 3.0 m/s through area A, = 0.125 m². The jet is directed downward against the wedge of weight W = 100 N. The wedge deflects the jet stream equally to the right and to the left and is long enough (perpendicular to the page) that end effects are negligible. The water density is constant.
