A tanker discharges a jet of water horizontally backwards with a velocity of 4.8 m/s. If the rate of discharge is 0.085 m'/s, what is the force required to keep the tanker at rest? If tanker is allowed to move forward with a uniform velocity of 1.8 m/s, and the jet velocity relative to the tanker is still 4.8 m/s, what will be the force on the tanker?
