A jet of water with density ρ and cross-sectional area 'a' strikes a smooth, stationary flat plate inclined at an angle θ to the direction of the jet with a velocity V. Assuming no energy loss due to impact, the magnitude of the force exerted by the jet on the plate in the direction normal to the plate (Fn) is given by:
- 1ρaV
- 2ρaV2 cos2(θ)
- 3ρaV sin2(θ)
- 4ρaV2 sin(θ)✓
Correct answer
ρaV2 sin(θ)
