C IMPACT OF JET EXPERIMENT 1 Aim To find the impact force caused by a fluid jet on a horizontal plate and a hemispherical shell and compare it with the expected theoretical force. 2 Theory When a rubber ball strikes a solid surface it nicely rebounds from the solid surface. The amount of rebound would depend on the coefficient of restitution. However‚ when a steady fluid jet strikes a solid surface‚ it does not rebound. But‚ a stream of fluid is formed which moves over the surface and the fluid

Title Impact of water jet Objective The purpose of this experiment is to demonstrate the application of the momentum equation. The force generated by a jet of water deflected by an impact surface is measured and compared to the momentum change of the jet. To relate: • Direct measurement of impact forces • Effect of flow rate and velocity • Effect of various deflection angles Introduction / Theory Newton’s Second law states that The applied forces is equal
