A jet of water is discharging at a constant rate of 0.06 m 3 /s from the upper tank (Fig. 2). If the jet diameter at
section 1 is 10 cm, what forces will be measured by scales A and B? Assume the empty tank weighs 1335 N, the cross-sectional area of the tank is 0.37 m 2 , h= 30 cm, and H =2.74 m.(density of water at 60°F = 983.2 kg/m)
Moment after making the dreaded decision to jump out the door of the airplane, Darin’s 82.5 kg body experiences 118 N of air resistance. Determine Darin’s acceleration at this instant time. HINT. Begin drawing a free body diagram and determine the net force.
