Two horizontal fluid jets of the same density p are impinging on a fixed vertical plate from opposite sides (see figure). The velocity of the larger jet on the left is V,, and its diameter is D1. On the other side, the velocity of the smaller jet is V2 = 2V1, and its diameter is D2 = D1/2. Determine the net force acting on the plate. D1 D2 V1 + V2
