A 2.5-cm-diameter horizontal water jet with a speed of 6.4 m/s hits a wall. What is the force, F, in N? Density of water is 1000 kg/m3.
Answer:
A river discharges into a reservoir at a rate of 400,000 ft/s (cfs), and the outflow rate from the reservoir
through the flow passages in the dam is 250,000 cfs. If the reservoir surface area is 40 mi?, what is the
rate of rise of water in the reservoir?
