Water, issuing vertically from a nozzle having a diameter of 25 mm, flows out under a head of 30 m. If C = Cv = 0.98, determine at what constant height could the jet of water support a load of 200 N vertically from the nozzle tip?
Find the force exerted by a jet of water of diameter 75 mm on a stationary flat plate, when the jet strikes the plate normally with velocity of 20 m/s.
A 7-cm diameter vertical water jet is injected upwards by a nozzle at a speed of 15 m/s. Determine the maximum weight of a flat plate that can be supported by this water jet at a height of m from the nozzle. 8

- Water enters vertically and steadily at a rate of 60 L/s into the sprinkler shown, with unequal arms and unequal discharge areas. The smaller jet has a discharge area of 3 cm2 and a normal distance of 50 cm from the axis of rotation. The larger jet has a discharge area of 5 cm2 and a normal distance of 35 cm from the axis of rotation. Disregarding any frictional effects, determine (a) the rotational speed of the sprinkler in rpm and (b) the torque required to prevent the sprinkler from rotating.arrow_forwardA horizontal water jet impinges against a vertical flat plate at 30 ft/s and splashes off the sides in the vertical plane. If a horizontal force of 500 lbf is required to hold the plate against the water stream, determine the volume flow rate of the water.arrow_forwardA uniform tube is used to siphon water from the large tank. If the pressure on the outside of the tube (the atmospheric pressure) is more than 20 kPa greater than the pressure within the tube, the tube will collapse. By using Bernoulli's equation, determine the minimum value of h allowed without the siphon collapsing. The density of water is 1000 kg/m3. Hint: Since the tube is uniform the flow speed in it is constant. The exiting flow from the tube is treated as free jet. 2 m V SARA 1 4 marrow_forward
