A horizontal water jet impinges against a vertical flat plate at 30 ft/s and splashes off the sides in the vertical plane. If a horizontal force of 500 lbf is required to hold the plate against the water stream, determine the volume flow rate of the water

During a steady flow process, the change of energy with respect to time is zero. a)- true b)- false

Ariver flows from north to south at 8 km/h. a boat is to cross this river from west to east at a speed of 20 km/h (speed of the boat with respect to the earth/ground). at what angle (in degrees) must the boat be pointed upstream such that it will proceed directly across the river (hint: find the speed of the boat with respect to water/river)? a 288 b. 21.8 c. 326 d. 30.2

Shafts are machine elements that are used to a) carry axial loads b) direct shear loads c) transmit power d) rotate at constant speed e) none of the above circular and square shafts subjected to the same torque under the same circum behave a) the same way b) almost the same way
