A98-ft3/s water jet is moving in the positive x-direction at 18 ft/s. the stream hits a stationary splitter, such that half of the flow is diverted upward at 45° and the other half is directed downward, and both streams have a final average speed of 18 ft/s. disregarding gravitational effects, determine the x- and z-components of the force required to hold the splitter in place against the water force. take the density of water as 62.4 lbm/ft3.

The temperature of air decreases as it is compressed by an adiabatic compressor. a)- true b)- false

Adouble-strand no. 60 roller chain is used to transmit power between a 13-tooth driving sprocket rotating at 300 rev/min and a 52-tooth driven sprocket. a) what is the allowable horsepower of this drive? b) estimate the center-to-center distance if the chain length is 82 pitches. c) estimate the torque and bending force on the driving shaft by the chain if the actual horsepower transmitted is 30 percent less than the corrected (allowable) power.

Assuming compressible flow of air and that the measurements are done at flagstaff a pitot static tube that gives the difference of total and static pressure measures 0.35 m of mercury. what is the velocity of air? assume the temperature to be 300k. (submit your excel or matlab calculation sheet)
