The nozzle shown discharges a stream of water at a flow rate Q = 500 gal/min with a velocity v of magnitude 48 ft/s. The stream is split into two streams of equal flow rates by a wedge which is moving to the left at a constant speed of 12 ft/s. Determine the components (drag and lift) of the force exerted by the stream on the wedge. (1 ft3 = 7.48gal.)
