Question

Water is pumped into an open tank at a rate of 0.10 mJ/s using the nozzle arrangement shown in the drawing. Estimate the value of the pressure. PA will be shown by the pressure gauge located just below flange A? Quote the result in kPa(a). Draw and fully label the control volume you would use analyze the forces and moments in the flanged joint A. Assuming PA = +300 kPa(a) (Note: This is not the value you should have obtained in part (a)), determine the magnitude and direction of the vertical (y direction) force in the flanged joint A. Neglect the weight of the piping and the weight of the water inside it. is the flanged joint in tension or compression?

Explanation / Answer

fluid:a substance without a fixed shap and yeilds easily to external pressure
