When a jet of water gushing from a short pipe with a diameter of D= 5 cm, located at a depth of h= 6.6 m from the surface of a fixed level reservoir shown in the figure, hits a horizontal plate that makes an angle of 30o with the jet axis (friction effects are neglected), a)Determine the scalar value and direction of the impact force exerted by the water on the plate (Enter the numerical value of the direction you think is correct in the direction-number image in Figure 3 in the box named "Direction-effect". For example: '1' will be entered for the upward direction). b)Determine the scalar value of the reaction force of the plate and determine its direction (Enter the numerical value of the direction you think is correct in the direction-number image given in Figure 3 in the box named "Direction-reaction". For example: '1' will be entered for the upward direction).
