Water shoots out of a large tank sitting on a cart with frictionless wheels. The water jet

Question:

Water shoots out of a large tank sitting on a cart with frictionless wheels. The water jet velocity is V_j = 7.00 m/s, its cross-sectional area is A_j = 20.0 mm², and the momentum-flux correction factor of the jet is 1.04. The water is deflected 135° as shown (θ = 45°), and all of the water flows back into the tank. The density of the water is 1000 kg/m³. Calculate the horizontal force F (in units of N) required to hold the cart in place.
