Question: 5 . 9 A water jet pump has an area A j = 0 . 0 6 f t 2 and a jet velocity v

5.9 A water jet pump has an area Aj=0.06ft2 and a jet velocity vj=90fps, which entrains a secondary stream of water having a velocity vs=10fps in a constant-area pipe of total area A=0.6ft2. At section 2, the water is thoroughly mixed. Assuming one-dimensional flow and neglecting wall shear
(a) find the average velocity of mixed flow at section 2;
(b) find the pressure rise (P2-P1), assuming the pressure of the jet and secondary stream to be the same at section 1.
 5.9 A water jet pump has an area Aj=0.06ft2 and a
