Water Accelerated By A Nozzle To 20 M S Strikes The Vertical Back Surface Of A Stationary Bus The Mass Flow Rate Of Wat 1

Water accelerated by a nozzle to 20 m/s strikes the vertical back surface of a stationary bus. The mass flow rate of water is 38 kg/s. After the strike, the water stream splatters off in all directions in the plane of the back surface of the bus. a) Determine the force that needs to be applied on the brakes of the bus to prevent it from moving b) Determine the force that needs to be applied on the brakes of the bus if it moves at a constant speed of 8 m/s in the direction of flow. c) If this force (in part b, above) were used to generate power instead of wasting it on the brakes, determine the maximum amount of power that can be generated.
