. Indiana Jones needs to ascend a high-rise building. There is a large hose filled with pressurized water hanging down from the building top. He builds a square platform and mounts four 4-cm-diamter nozzles pointing down at each corner. By connecting hose branches, a water jet can be produced from each nozzle. Jones, the platform, and the nozzles have a combined mass of 150 kg. Determine the minimum water jet velocity needed to raise the system.
An ideal gas passes a diffuser. At the diffuser inlet, the temperature is T1 = 350.00 K, the pressure P1 = 100.00 kPa, the velocity V1 = 200.00 m/s, and the inlet area A1 = 0.30 m2.

A 1-kW intake fan is used to pull in air (p, = 1.225 kg/m') from a room and push it through a duct of rectangular cross-sectional area of (1 m x 0.5 m), as shown in the figure. The air pressure on the downstream side of the fan is approximately equal to the room air pressure. Estimate the air velocity in the duct if the fan is 70% efficient in transferring energy to the air. Neglect major and minor losses in the duct. Room 0.5 m この O. Flow Eim - Duct cross sectional area
Water with density of 1000 kg/m^3 flows through a horizontal pipe (in the x-z plane) bend as shown. The weight of the pipe is 350 N and the pipe cross-sectional area is constant and equals to 0.35 m^2. The magnitude of the inlet velocity is 4 m/s.
