(a)
Answer to Problem 39E
The value of horizontal distance with different value of
Explanation of Solution
Given:
The initial speed is 25 feet per second.
Calculation:
Use the formula for horizontal distance.
The table shows the value for different value of
Angle of Sprinkler | Horizontal distance water travels |
30 | 16.91 |
35 | 18.35 |
40 | 19.23 |
45 | 19.53 |
50 | 19.23 |
55 | 18.35 |
60 | 16.91 |
Thus, the value of horizontal distance with different value of
(b)
To find: The maximum value of horizontal distance.
(b)
Answer to Problem 39E
The maximum value of horizontal distance is 19.53 at 45 degree.
Explanation of Solution
Given:
The initial speed is 25 feet per second.
Calculation:
Use the formula for horizontal distance.
The table shows the value for different value of
Angle of Sprinkler | Horizontal distance water travels |
30 | 16.91 |
35 | 18.35 |
40 | 19.23 |
45 | 19.53 |
50 | 19.23 |
55 | 18.35 |
60 | 16.91 |
From the above table, the maximum value is obtained as
Thus, the maximum value of horizontal distance is 19.53 at 45 degree.

Answer to Problem 39E
The curve is shown in Figure 1
Explanation of Solution
Given:
The initial speed is 25 feet per second.
Calculation:
From the above table, the curve is drawn as,
Figure 1
Thus, the maximum value of horizontal distance is 19.53 at 45 degree.
