In a plant where hemispherical cup-shaped parts are made, an automatic washer is being designed to clean the parts prior to shipment. One scheme being evaluated uses a stream of water at 180°F shooting vertically upward into the cup. The stream has a velocity of 30 ft/s and a diameter of 1.00 in. As shown in Fig. 16.15, the water leaves the cup vertically downward in the form of an annular ring having an outside diameter of 4.00 in and an inside diameter of 3.80 in. Compute the external force required to hold the cup down.
