. The rotor of a centrifugal pump is rotating (CW) at a constant rate of 200 rpm. The fluid particles in the vanes are observed to have an absolute velocity with an r- direction component of 3 m/s at discharge from the vane. Furthermore, the velocity of the particles measured relative to the vanes is observed to be increasing at a rate of 24 m/s2 just before discharge. If the radius of curvature at the vanes end is 200 mm, determine the absolute acceleration of the fluid particles as they exit the rotor 160 mm 200 mm 45
