A jet of velocity of 20 m/s strikes a flat plate inclined at 30° with the axis of the jet. If the cross sectional area of the jet is 20 cm2, find the force exerted by the jet on the plate. Also calculate the components of the force in the direction normal to the jet. Find also the ratio in which the discharge gets divided after striking the plate.
