Question

A horizontal jet of water strikes a curved vane as shown in Figure C.1. The external angle of the curved vane is 158°.The mean velocity and volumetric flow rate of the water jet at position 1 are 12 m/s and 55 m³/h respectively. Dueto friction, the water jet leaves the vane at position 2 with 92 % its original velocity. (i)Direct force exerted by the water jet on the vane in the x - direction. (ii)Direct force exerted by the water jet on the vane in the y - direction. (ii)Net resultant direct force and angle on the vane.
