Question
A jet of air having velocity V₁ and cross-sectional area A₁ strikes an inclined plate as shown
in the figure. Neglect any effects of viscosity.
V₁
(a) Find V₂ and V3 in terms of V₁. Note that the pressure is patm everywhere.
(b) Because viscous effects are negligible, there is no way for the air to exert a force on the
plate in the tangential (z) direction. Using the coordinate system in the figure, find A₂
and A3 in terms of A₁ and 0.
(c) For V₁ = 50 m/s, A₁ = 5 x 10-4 m², and 0 = 60°, find the force required to hold the
plate in place. Neglect the weight of the plate. Recall that pair = 1.225 kg/m³.
