1. If the plate shown is inclined at an angle as shown, what are the forces Fx and Fy necessary to maintain its position? The flow is frictionless.
2. A steady, incompressible, frictionless, two-dimensional jet of fluid with breadth h, velocity v, and unit width impringes on a flat plate held at an angle a to its axis. Gravitational forces are to be neglected.
(a) Determine the total forceon the plate, and the breadths a, b, of the two branches.
(b) Determine the distance 1 to the center of pressure (c.p.) along the plate from the point 0. (The center of pressure is the point at which the plate can be balanced without requiring an additional moment.)
