Aplane nozzle discharges vertically downward to atmosphere. the nozzle is supplied with a steady flow of water. a stationary, inclined, flat plate, located beneath the nozzle, is struck by the water stream. the water stream divides and flows along the inclined plate; the two streams leaving the plate are of unequal thickness. frictional effects are negligible in the nozzle and in the flow along the plate surface. evaluate the minimum gage pressure required at the nozzle inlet. calculate the magnitude and direction of the force exerted by the water stream on the inclined plate. sketch the pressure distribution along the surface of the plate. explain why the pressure distribution is shaped the way you sketched it. consider the nozzle to be 1 m in depth into the plane of the paper.
