A liquid of density \(\rho \) is coming out of a hose pipe of radius \(a\) with horizontal speed \(v\) and hits a mesh. \(50\%\) of the liquid passes through the mesh unaffected. \(25\%\) looses all of its momentum and \(25\%\) comes back with the same speed. The resultant pressure on the mesh will be

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) \(\frac{3}{4}\,\rho {v^2}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(F = \frac{1}{4} \times \rho A{v^2} + \frac{1}{4}2\rho a{v^2}\)

\( \Rightarrow \frac{F}{A} = \frac{3}{4}\rho A{v^2} = \rho \)
