Introduction
This experiment is used to study the application of Newton`s second law of motion on water jet out of the nozzle. Water under known pressure coming out of a jet of a known diameter tends to gush out at a relatively high velocity. This experiment is all about the study of the motion of water and all the forces involved.
Background information
The impulse momentum principle state that the state of rest or uniform motion of the body takes place in the direction of the externally applied force and the magnitude of the force is equal to the rate of ...
