In a community event, a game of 'water resistance' is played by a group of people. Considering
a stream of water jet shooting out of a water hose with a diameter of 50 cm. The water exits
the hose at a velocity of 10 m/s and impact on a flat metal plate placed vertically at a normal
angle to the water. Assume the density of water to be at 1000 kg/m³.

1. Determine the force exerted by the water jet on the metal plate
2. If there are two adults standing behind the metal plate, holding the plate at an angle of
20° below horizontal level and the force exerted by the adults on the plate is at 300N,
measure the magnitude and direction of the resultant force. Will the adults able to move
towards the water jet and not pushed backwards by the water jet?
