- Homework Statement
- Water flows out of a big tank along a tube bent at right angles:
the inside radius of the tube is equal to r = 0.50 cm. The length of the horizontal section of the tube is equal to 1 = 22 cm.
The water flow rate is Q = 0.50 liters per second. Find the moment
of reaction forces of flowing water, acting on the tube's walls, relative
to the point 0 (where tube and tank is connected).
- Relevant Equations
- ## \tau = F R ##
Q = V A
I know that I have to calculate force that is generated by water. However, I do it wrong way.
## A = \pi r^2 ##
## v = \frac Q A = \frac Q {\pi r^2}##
## F = P t = mvt = ...? ## - have problem with mass. and is it even correct way?
if I can calculate F - its easy afterwards...
##\tau = F l ##
P.S.
I looked for the solutions and it says that
## F = (\pi r^2) \rho v^2 ##
I can't get how they wrote it - I tried many approach already..
