Chapter 16, Problem 16.27PP

Figure 16.22 shows a device for clearing debris using a 1 1 / 2 -in-diameter jet of air issuing from a blower nozzle. As shown, the jet is striking a rectangular box-shaped object

sitting on a floor. If the air velocity is 25 ft/s and the entire jet is deflected by the box, what is the heaviest object that could be moved? Assume that the box slides rather than tumbling over and that the coefficient of friction is 0.60 . The air has a density of 2.40   x   10 3 s l u g s / f t 3 .

Figure 16.23 is a sketch of a turbine in which the incom- ing stream of water at 15°C has a diameter of 7.50 mm and is moving with a velocity of 25 m/s. Compute the force on one blade of the turbine if the stream is deflected through the angle shown and the blade is stationary.
A twin-engine aircraft is climbing at a 10-degree angle, measured from the vertical, at 260ft/s. The thrust developed by an engine is 1000 lb. Calculate the power developed by the whole aircraft
