A large lawn sprinkler with four identical arms is to be converted into a turbine to generate electric power by
attaching a generator to its rotating head. Water enters the sprinkler from the base along the axis of rotation at a
rate of 12 kg/s and leaves the nozzles in the tangential direction at a velocity of 45 m/s relative to the rotating nozzle.
The sprinkler rotates at a rate of 500 rpm in a horizontal plane. The normal distance between the axis of rotation and
the center of each nozzle is 30 cm. Estimate the torque produced.
