5.28 A stream of water flowing horizontally with a speed of 15 m s-1 gushes out of a tube of cross-sectional area 10-2 m2, and hits a vertical wall nearby. What is the force exerted on the wall by the impact of water, assuming it does not rebound ?
5.28 A stream of water flowing horizontally with a speed of 15 m s-1 gushes out of a tube of cross-sectional area 10-2 m2, and hits a vertical wall nearby. What is the force exerted on the wall by the impact of water, assuming it does not rebound ?
Speed of water, v = 15 m/s
Cross-sectional area of the tube, A = 10-2 m2
Density of water = 1000 kg/m3
Mass of the water hitting the wall = = 1000 10-2 = 150 kg/s
Force exerted on the wall because of impact of water = mass velocity = 150 N = 2250 N
