Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

A cylindrical tank is filled with water. Calculate the net forces acting on the tank walls when water is flowing in at a steady rate. Use the Reynolds transport theorem.

💡 Hint: Identify any pressures acting on the tank and how they change as water enters.

Question 2

Design a water jet system using conservation of momentum principles. Evaluate the forces acting along the flow direction.

💡 Hint: Consider pressure variations along the jet’s path.
