The water jet in figure, moving at 15 m/s, is split so that one-third of the water moves towardA. Calculate the magnitude and direction of the force on the stationary splitter.
A jet issues without loss from a hole in a water tank that is open to the atmosphere. The hole is located a distance H below the free surface, and the jet issues at an angle θ to the horizontal direction, and it has an exit area of A. Express the maximum height of the jet as a function of θ and H (which is held constant). What is the the horizontal component of the force exerted on the tank by the jet? Ignore losses.
A cylindrical tank discharges water at 20^O C through a well-rounded orifice to hit an inclined plate as shown in the figure. Determine the components of the force exerted by the fluid jet on the plate inclined at 60^O from the horizontal.( Assume the external and internal pressures are the same)

- A siphon is used to drain water from a tank as illustrated below. Assume steady flow without friction. (a) If h = 0.89 m, find the speed of outflow at the end of the siphon, m/s (b) What is the limitation on the height of the top of the siphon above the end of the siphon?arrow_forwardCalculate the maximum speed with which water at atmospheric pressure can flow past an obstacle without breaking into turbulent flow. Use Bernoulli’s principle and neglect viscous drag.arrow_forward6.36 This two-dimensional water (at 50°F) jet is deflected by the two-dimensional vane, which is moving to the right with a speed of 60 ft/s. The initial jet is 0.30 ft thick (vertical dimension), and its speed is 100 ft/s. What power per foot of the jet (normal to the page) is transmitted to the vane? See §6.5 for useful knowledge about moving CVs.arrow_forward
- A jet of water 75 mm in diameter having velocity of 20 m/s strikes a series of the flat plates arranged around the periphery of a wheel such that each plate appears successively before the jet. If the plates are moving at a velocity of 5 m/s, compute the force exerted by the jet on the plate, the work done per second on the plate and the efficiency of the jet.arrow_forwardIn an experiment a jet of water of diameter 20 mm is fired vertically upwards at a sprung target thatdeflects the water at an angle of 120° to the horizontal in all directions. If a 500g mass placed on thetarget balances the force of the jet, what is the discharge of the jet in litre/s?arrow_forwardCalculate the theoretical discharge through a vertical orifice 0.3 m square in the side of a tank if the free surface of the liquid in the tank is 150 mm above the top edge of the orifice. Compare this value with that obtained by multiplying the orifice area by the theoretical velocity at its center. Draw the figure properly.arrow_forward

- A jet of water with a diameter of 100 mm flows vertically until it meets a solid vane that deflected it at an angle of 180°. The initial velocity of the jet is 20 m/s. As a result of friction, the velocity of the jet leaving the vane is 15 m/s. Assuming the fluid is at atmospheric pressure throughout and neglecting the gravity effects, calculate the magnitude of the force exerted by the water on the vane.

The cylinder is filled with water and when the piston moves into the annular gap, water flows through the annular gap surrounding the piston. If the velocity of piston is 75mm/s raletive to the cylinder, determine the velocity of flow through the gap.arrow_forwardThe jet of water of a pelton wheel is 80mm diameter. The jet strike's the bucket on the tangential line 0.45m from the centre of the wheel and the jet is deflected through 160° while it is moving across the bucket.
