(Moment-of-momentum) A lawn sprinkler is constructed from pipe with 0.226-in. inside diameter as indicated in the figure below. Each arm is 5.54 in. in length. Water flows through the sprinkler at the rate of 1.45 lb/s. A force of 3.43 lb positioned halfway along one arm holds the sprinkler stationary. Compute the angle, 8, which the exiting water stream makes with the tangential direction. The flow leaves the nozzles in the horizontal plane.

Two geometrically similar pumps are running at the same speed of 1000 rpms One pump has impoller diameter of 300 mm and lift water at the rate of 0.02 m3 against a head of 15 m Determine the head and impeller diameter of the other pump to deliver half the discharge.
A single-acting reciprocating pump has piston diameter 12 cm and stroke length of 30cm. The center of the pump is 5m above the water level sump. The diameter and length of suction pipe are 7.5cm and 8m respectively. The separation occurs if the absolute pressure head in the cylinder during suction stroke falls below 2.5 m of water. Calculate the maximum speed at which the pump can run without separation. Take atmospheric pressure head = 10.3 m of water.

A uniform cross-sectional water tank is placed in a cart as shown in figure. The cart is mounted on frictionless rollers and the water is discharged to atmosphere through an attached nozzle. However, the the water level the tank is maintained at a constant height h above the nozzle by an external supply at a volumetric flow rate Q. The cart is restrained from moving by the cable seen in figure . The mass of the tank, cart and water is M.

A centrifugal pump when tested with Brine of density 1190 kg per cubic meter discharged 60 liter per second against a pressure of 300 kPa. It is desired to investigate the change in power when a similar pump is used to pump petrol of density 700 kg per cubic meter against the same pressure. It is desired to keep the speed the same. Check whether any change in the drive motor is required. Assume an overall efficiency of 70% in both cases.
