Problem

A 20°C water jet strikes a vane mounted on a tank with frictionless wheels, as in Fig. P3.61. The jet turns and falls into the tank without spilling out. Vj=50V_j = 50 ft/s, Dj=2D_j = 2 in, θ=30°\theta = 30°. If θ=30°\theta = 30°, evaluate the horizontal force FF required to hold the tank stationary.
