A stream of water from a fire hose with a flow rate of 320 gallons per minute and a speed of 35 m/s impinges on a wall at a right angle to the wall. How much force does this stream of water apply to the wall? Assume that the water spreads out radially from the stream and travels parallel to the wall after impingement.
