Transcribed Image Text:A square plate is suspended vertically from
one of its edges using a hinge support as
shown in figure. A water jet of 20 mm diameter
having a velocity of 10 m/s strikes the plate at
its midpoint, at an angle of 30° with the
vertical. Consider g as 9.81 m/s² and neglect
the self-weight of the plate. The force F
(expressed in N) required to keep the plate in
its vertical position is
