A garden hose attached with a nozzle is used to fill a 20 Liters bucket. The inner diameter of the hose is d
hose=8 cm, and it reduces to d nozzle= 6.1 cm at the nozzle exit. If it takes 50 seconds to fill the bucket with
water, determine average velocity m/s of water at the nozzle exit.

A jet of water strikes a stationary curved vane and is deflected by 150° from its originaldirection. The mass flow rate from the jet is 0.68 kg/s and has a velocity of 24 m/s. Calculatethe magnitude and direction of the resultant force on the vane.
A 95-ft3/s water jet is moving in the positive x-direction at 17 ft/s. The stream hits a stationary splitter, such that half of the flow is diverted upward at 45° and the other half is directed downward, and both streams have a final average speed of 17 ft/s. Disregarding gravitational effects, determine the x- and z- components of the force required to hold the splitter in place against the water force.

- In the jet impact experiment, water jet impacts on a curved vane in the vertical direction. As shown in the figure below, the exit has an angle with respect to the vertical direction. The distance from the nozzle to the vane surface at the exit is h. The water volume flow rate is measured to be Q, the density of water is p, and the cross section area of the nozzle is A₁. Assume that the flow has reached the steady state. (1) Use the Bernoulli's equation to determine the velocity Vout at the exit of the vane. Assume that friction between water and the curved vane can be neglected. (2) Apply the Reynolds transport theorem to derive the expression of the impact force F, on the curved vane (neglect the jet weight). (3) Under the condition of a fixed volume flow rate Q, determine the maximum impact force Fr,max that can be obtained when the angle varies (e.g. in different vane designs).
