A high-pressure oxygen cylinder, typically found in most welding shops, accidentally is knocked over and the valve on top of the cylinder breaks off. This creates a hole with a radius of 14 mm. Prior to the accident, the internal pressure of the oxygen is 14 MPa and the temperature is 27 °C. The velocity of the oxygen exiting the cylinder is estimated to be 300 m/s, the exit pressure 7.4 MPa and the exit temperature 250 K. How much thrust does the oxygen flow being expelled from the cylinder generate? Atmospheric pressure is 101 kPa. Assume R = 259.82 J/kg.K.
