3.(30 pts total) The water jet, exposed to atmospheric pressure, strikes a plate containing a hole (shown in figure). Part of the jet passes through the hole, and part is deflected.
Assume the flow is symmetric with respect to the horizontal centerline.
a. Determine the mass flow rate of water at stations \(1,2,3,4\).(8 pts )
b. Determine the magnitudo and direction of horizontal force and vertical force required to hold the plate in place. (20 pts)
c. How would you adjust your analysis in Part b if the plate was moving horizontally at a constant velocity \(\mathrm{V}_{\mathrm{c}}\)?(2 pts)(Note: Provide equation or explanation, no calculations needed)
