The lawn sprinkler shown in the figure rotates in the horizontal plane. A water flow of 15 L/min of water enters the center vertically and discharges in the horizontal plane from the two jets. Determine (a) the torque needed to keep the sprinkler from rotating and (b) the rotating speed of the sprinkler when the torque is removed. d = 5 mm R = 225 mm

Situation 7: A schematic of a garden fountain is given in the figure. A pump located beneath a water reservoir discharges a single jet vertically upward to a height of 6 ft above the reservoir surface. Under ideal conditions, the volume flow of liquid is 250 gpm.

Neglect friction. 6 ft Assuming that the jet remains circular at the rate of water flowing given, What is the diameter of the jet at one-third the height of the fountain? 2 ft Compute the pressure in the 6" diameter suction pipe 18 in.

If the velocity of water is 8m/s and the pressure is 140 kPa on the discharge side of a pump, What will be the head of the pump if the velocity is 4 m/s and the pressure is 90 kPa on the suction side of the pump? How much power is required to drive it if the diameter of suction side is 600 mm? If the pump is rated at 120 hp, what is the efficiency of the pump neglecting energy losses in the system?
The pump in the figure draws water from an 8-in. suction pipe and discharges through a 6-in. pipe in which the velocity is 12 ft per second. The pressure is -5 psi at A in the suction pipe. The 6-in pipe discharges horizontally into air at C. To what height h above B can the water be raised if B is 6 ft above A and 20 horsepower is delivered to the pump? Assume that the pump operates at 70 percent efficiency and that the frictional loss in the pipe between A and C is 10 ft.

If the pressure at point A in the suction pipe is -32kpa (negative sign indicate the pressure is below the atmosphere), where A is 1.8m below B on the 155mm line, determine the maximum elevation above B to which water can be raised assuming a head loss of 2.9m due to friction.

Problem 2. An engineer helps with the design of a rotating spray for a dishwasher. The spray has 4 identical jets spaced equally around the rim of a disc. Water enters though a hollow shaft and then flows radially out to the jets. The nozzle of the jet has a diameter D of 0.3 cm and makes an angle a = I (3 with the horizontal plane of the disc(See figure). The jets are oriented so that v2r=0. If the total flowrate Q=50 mL/s and the disc has radius R= 7.5 cm, determine the torque in dyne-cm required to keep the disc from rotating. Water jet R.
