If the motion of devices, shown in the figure, is restricted to x-direction
alone, state whether each will move in +x or –x direction. Assume
pressure at entrance and exit to be essentially same.

11. A vane with a turning angle of 60𝑜 moves with a constant velocity of
6.0 m/s as shown in the figure. Water flowing out from a nozzle 60 mm
diameter strikes the vane tangentially at 30m/s. Determine the force
on the vane?

13. A body floats in between the plane of separation of two fluids of unit
weights 𝛾1 and 𝛾2 and if 𝑉1 and 𝑉2 are the volumes of the body in the
two fluids, the buoyant force is given by:
a) FB = γ1 ∙ V1 − γ2 ∙ V2
b) FB = γ1 ∙ V1 /γ2 ∙ V2
c) FB = γ1 ∙ V1 + γ2 ∙ V2
d) FB = γ1 ∙ V2 +γ2 ∙ V1
