A horizontal water jet at 21°C issues from a circular orifice in a large tank. The jet strikes a vertical plate that is normal to the axis of the jet. A force of 2.5 kN is needed to hold the plate in place against the action of the jet. If the pressure in the tank is 170 kPa gage at point A, (1) Determine the jet speed. (7') (2) Determine the diameter of the jet just downstream of the orifice. (6')
