Question

3. It has been assumed that the velocity in the jet is uniform over its cross-section. How is the momentum in the jet affected if this is not so? Consider for example, a jet of cross-sectional area a in which the velocity is 0.5 x uo over half of the area and 1.5 x uo over the other half. The discharge is the same as if the velocity were uo over the whole, namely: show that the rate of delivery of momentum in the jet is 1.25 x M x oo, 1.e. 25% greater than if the velocity were uniform over the cross section What would be the effect on the calculated force on the flat plate, if the jet were assumed to leave the plate not absolute horizontally, but inclined upwards at an angle of 1° 4.
