//Fluid system - By - Shiv Kumar //Chapter 2 - Impact of Jet //Example 2.6 clc clear //Given Data:- M=13.5; //Mass of plate, kg d=16; //Diameter of the Jet, mm V=20; //Velocity of the Jet, m/s L=300; //Length of Edge of plate, mm //Data Used:- rho=1000; //Density of water, kg/m^3 g=9.81; //Acceleration due to gravity, m/s^2 //Computations:- d=d/1000; //m L=L/1000; //m W=M*g; //Weight of Plate, N a=(%pi/4)*d^2; //cross sectional area of Jet, m^2 //(a) Fx=rho*a*V^2; //Force exerted by Jet normal to plate, N //Taking Moment at 'A', P=Fx*(L/2)/L; //N //(b) theta=asind(rho*a*V^2/W); //Angle of Swing, degrees //Results:- printf("(a)Horizontal force applied at Lower edge of plate to keep it vertical, P=%.3f N \n", P) //The answer vary due to round off error printf("(b)Angle of swing, theta=%.2f degrees", theta) //The answer vary due to round off error
