Question

Water at 20 degree C is discharged through a slot in a 225-mm-diameter pipe as shown in the figure below. The slot has a length of 0.8 m and a width of 30 mm, and the velocity through the slot increases linearly from 6 m/s to 18 m m/s over the length of the slot. The (gauge) pressure in the pipe just upstream of the slot is 80 kPa, and the slot discharges to the open atmosphere. Estimate the component forces and moment that are exerted on the support section. Express your answers, separated by commas, to three significant figures. F_x =, F_y =, M =

Explanation / Answer

Following is the answer of the given figure.

The value of force is 38.0765 kn .

While the value of moment is 52 kn-m.
