  • question_answer
    An engine pumps water continuously through a hose. Water leaves the hose with velocity v and m is mass per unit length of the water jet. If this jet hits a surface and came to rest instantaneously, the force on the surface is

    A) \[m{{v}^{3}}\]                                  

    B)                        \[m{{v}^{2}}\]

    C)                        \[\frac{1}{2}m{{v}^{2}}\]                             

    D)                        \[\frac{1}{2}m{{v}^{3}}\]

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

                    As power\[P=F.v.=\frac{F.\ell }{t}\]or,\[v\left( M\frac{v}{t} \right)=\frac{F.\ell }{t}\] \[\Rightarrow \]\[M{{v}^{2}}=F.\ell \]\[\Rightarrow \]\[F={{\frac{M}{\ell }}^{2}}{{v}^{2}}=m{{v}^{2}}\] \[\left[ \because \frac{M}{\ell }\text{=}\left( \text{given} \right) \right]\]
