(b) The elevator is accelerating downward at 12 ft/sec2. (c) The elevator is accelerating downward at 32 ft/sec2. Have we made any restrictions on the directions of the velocity in parts (a), (b), and/or (c)? If so, what?
2. A 100 ft³/s water jet is moving in the positive x -direction at 18 ft/s. The
stream hits a stationary splitter, such that half of the flow is diverted upward
at 45° and the other half is directed downward, and both streams have a final
average speed of 18 ft/s. Disregarding gravitational effects, determine the
x - and z -components of the force required to hold the splitter in place
against the water force.
