5.[10](a) A triangular shape bisects and diverts a jet of water as shown in the Figure. If the jet velocity \((\mathrm{V})\) is \(10\mathrm{ft}/\mathrm{s}\), and the diameter is 2 inches, what is the \( x \)-directional force of the jet on the triangular shape. The fluid speed magnitude remains constant along the triangles' surface.
(b) If the triangular shape moves to the right at \(8\mathrm{ft}/\mathrm{sec}\), what is the x -directional force applied by the jet on the shape.
(a)-0.567 lb
(b)-0.0227 lb
