A horizontal water jet at 70 °F issues from a circular orifice in a large tank. The jet strikes a vertical plate that is normal to the axis of the jet. A force of 600 lbf is needed to hold the plate in place against the action of the jet.
If the pressure in the tank is 25 psig at point A parallel to the orifice in the tank, what is the diameter of the jet just down-stream of the orifice?

At steady state, air at 200 kpa, 325 k, and mass flow rate of 0.5 kg/s enters an insulated duct having differing inlet and exit cross-sectional areas. the inlet cross-sectional area is 6 cm2. at the duct exit, the pressure of the air is 100 kpa and the velocity is 250 m/s. neglecting potential energy effects and modeling air as an 1.008 kj/kg k, determine ideal gas with constant cp = (a) the velocity of the air at the inlet, in m/s. (b) the temperature of the air at the exit, in k. (c) the exit cross-sectional area, in cm2
