A 2 cm horizontal jet of water with a velocity of 15 m/s is spraying onto a vertical plate attached to a cart moving opposite the direction of the water jet at 8 m/s. Determine the force required to keep the cart moving at a constant velocity. What is the power supplied to the cart? Assume the water splashes in all directions in the plane of the plate upon impact.

Rate of heat transfer and outlet temperature of glycerine : A heater exchanger uses 6 kg/s cold water at 10 C in a counter-flow heat exchanger to cool a hot glycerine (cp = 2.05 kJ/kg-K) stream that enters at 300 C at a rate of 10 kg/s. If the water exits the heat exchanger at 50 C. find the rate of heat tran..

Find the cycle thermal efficiency and net cycle power : The turbine inlet flow rate is 125 kg/s of saturated steam at 300C for a simple, non-ideal Rankine cycle.
