FLUID MECHANICS: MOMENTUM EQUATION A cone that is held stable by a wire is free to move in the vertical direction and has a jet of water (at 10oC) striking it firm below. The cone weighs 30 N. The initial speed of the jet as it comes from the orifice is 15m/s, and the initial jet diameter is 2cm. Find the height to which the cone will rise and remain stationary. NOTE: The wire is only for stability and should not enter your calculations.
As shown in this image, water fills a tank with a sloped side, which has a flat, rectangular gate of height 6-ft and width 7-ft. The hinge along the top allows the gate to open when a force P is applied. If you neglect friction and the weight of the gate, what is force, P, in lb-f required to open the gate?
