- A horizontal air jet with a mass flow rate of (m) and a velocity of (V) strikes the inside surface of a hollow hemisphere. Assume the magnitude of air velocity remains constant ( Vin=Vout=V). Determine the horizontal anchoring force (F) needed to hold the hemisphere in place for the following conditions: m = 4.71 kg/s and V = 20 m/s F F= 11.8 N F=105.9 N F= 47.2 N F=188.4 Narrow_forwardA horizontal 5-cm-diameter water jet with a velocity of 18 m/s impinges normally upon a vertical plate of mass 1000 kg. The plate rides on a nearly frictionless track and is initially stationary. When the jet strikes the plate, the plate begins to move in the direction of the jet. The water always splatters in the plane of the retreating plate. Determine (a) the acceleration of the plate when the jet first strikes it (time 5 0), (b) the time it takes for the plate to reach a velocity of 9 m/s, and (c) the plate velocity 20 s after the jet first strikes the plate. For simplicity, assume the velocity of the jet is increased as the cart moves such that the impulse force exerted by the water jet on the plate remains constant.arrow_forwardFor the experimental setup of a jet striking on a hemispherical cup surface as shown in the figure, the nozzle diameter equal 145 cm, and the velocity of the water jet is 34.76 m/s. Determine the jet force on the cup, F (in kN). Determine the theoretical mass (in Kg) required to balance the force due to the impact of a jet striking on a hemispherical cup surface.arrow_forward

How much force is required to hold the cone against the water stream?arrow_forwardA 3-in.-diameter horizontal water jet having a velocity of 97 ft/s strikes a curved plate, which deflects the water 180° at the same speed. Ignoring the frictional effects, determine the force required to hold the plate against the water stream. Take the density of water to be 62.4 lbm/ft³ Water jet. Vius- VIUS 13 in. The force required to hold the plate against the water stream is lbf.arrow_forwardAn unloaded helicopter of mass 12,000 kg hovers at sea level while it is being loaded. In the unloaded hover mode, the blades rotate at 550 rpm. The horizontal blades above the helicopter cause a 18-m-diameter air mass to move downward at an average velocity proportional to the overhead blade rotational velocity (rpm). A load of 14,000 kg is loaded onto the helicopter, and the helicopter slowly rises. Determine (a) the volumetric airflow rate downdraft that the helicopter generates during unloaded hover and the required power input and (b) the rpm of the helicopter blades to hover with the 14,000-kg load and the required power input. Take the density of atmospheric air to be 1.18 kg/m3. Assume air approaches the blades from the top through a large area with negligible velocity and air is forced by the blades to move down with a uniform velocity through an imaginary cylinder whose base is the blade span area.arrow_forward
- 1. While watering plants, a home owner is experimenting with his water hose. He sprayed the water upward vertically into a plate having a mass of 1.5 kg and suspended the plate. If the diameter of the nozzle of the hose is 20 mm, and water speed at the nozzle is 10 m/s, how high can the plate be suspended above the tip of hose, in meters?arrow_forwardA fire hose is shooting water at a refrigerator at 10 kg/s with a velocity of 10 m/s. This flow is perpendicular to the surface and all water flows off parallel to the surface (ie no "x" direction in outflow). The friction on the ground which must be overcome to cause the refrigerator to move is 50 N. The refrigerator is 2 m tall and 0.8m wide and 1 m deep. It weights 200 kg (which you may assume to be evenly distributed). Will it move? If no what is the initial acceleration?arrow_forwardA 5-cm-diameter horizontal jet of water with a velocity of 30 m/s relative to the ground strikes a flat plate that is moving in the same direction as the jet at a velocity of 20 m/s. The water splatters in all directions in the plane of the plate. How much force does the water stream exert on the plate?arrow_forward
- 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.arrow_forwardA horizontal fan (such as that shown in example 5.24) pulls in stagnant air (ie. basically stationary air) atatmospheric pressure; the air approaches the fan outlet with speed 44 ft/sec (ie. 30 mph) and with static pressure 0.3 psi. The air flowing through the fan can be assumed to have a constant density of 2.4*10-3 slug/ft3. The air losses due to friction are 0.1 psi (or 6000 ft-lb/slug of air passing from the fan inlet to the outlet). a) Determine the shaft work in ft-lb/slug b) If the fan outlet area is 2 ft2, determine the rate of work on the air.arrow_forwardQ1: Water enters a two-armed lawn sprinkler along the vertical axis at a rate of 0.06 m³/s and leaves the sprinkler nozzles as 2-cm diameter jets at an angle of 0 from the tangential direction, as shown in Fig. 1. The length of each sprinkler arm is 0.45 m. Disregarding any frictional effects and air drag, determine the rate of rotation of the sprinkler in rev/min for (a) 0 = 0° and (b) 0 = 30°.
