A liquid of density ρ is coming out of a hose pipe of radius a with horizontal speed v and hits a mesh. 50% of the liquid passes through the mesh unaffected. 25% looses all of its momentum and 25% comes back with the same speed. The resultant pressure on the mesh will be:

(a)

 v2

(b)

(c)

(d)

Answer Key : (b) -

Momentum per second carried by liquid per second is av2

net force due to reflected liquid=2×

net force due to stopped liquid=a

Total force=

Net pressure=
