A nozzle is attached to a vertical pipe and discharges water

A nozzle is attached to a vertical pipe and discharges water into the atmosphere as shown in the below figure. When the discharge is 0.1 m^3/s, the gage pressure at the flange is 40 kPa. Determine the vertical component of the anchoring force required to hold the nozzle in place. The nozzle has a weight of 200 N, and the volume of water in the nozzle is 0.012 m^3.

Solution

The answer of the following questions are as follows

The vertical component of the anchoring force required to hold the nozzle in place is 869 N
