A 2.8-in-diameter horizontal water jet having a velocity of 88 ft/s strikes a curved plate, which deflects the water 180° at the same speed. Ignoring the frictional effects, determine the force required to hold the plate against the water stream.
Water flowing steadily at a rate of 0.16 m3/s is deflected downward by an angled elbow as shown. For D = 30 cm, d = 10 cm, and h = 50 cm, determine the force acting on the flanges of the elbow and the angle its line of action makes with the horizontal. Take the internal volume of the elbow to be 0.03 m3 and the weight of the elbow whose masss is 5kg.
A 100-ft3 /s wáter jet hits a horizontally lying stationary splitter, such that half of the mass flow is diverted one way and the other half is diverted the other way, and both streams have a uniform velocity of 18 ft/s. The deflection angle of the splitter is 45 degrees as shown.
Obtain (a) the cross-sectional area of the jet and (b) the horizontal (x-y) components of the force required to hold the splitter in place.
