Inviscid, room temperature and atmospheric pressure air is directed through a cone-shaped nozzle mounted to a cart on wheels. Air enters uniformly at a velocity Uin = 1.5 relative to the moving cart over an area with radius Rin = 20 cm. The air exits at an unknown but uniform velocity Uout relative to the moving cart over an area with radius Rout = 12 cm. The cart moves at a steady velocity V to the right relative to the ground, at equilibrium. Friction in the wheels produces a force F = µV opposite to the direction of travel, where µ = 1.3: kg Effects of gravity may be neglected. S Uin Rin flow Rout y a) Determine the outlet velocity relative to the cart. b) What is the velocity of the cart relative to the ground?
