![A sharp-edged splitter plate inserted part way into a flat stream of flowing water produces the
flow pattern shown. Analyze the situation to evaluate 0 as a function of a, where 0 < a < 0.5.
Evaluate the force needed to hold the splitter plate in place. (Neglect any friction force between
the water stream and the splitter plate)
