A flat plate orifice of (50 mathrm{~mm}) diameter is located at the end of a 100-mm-diameter pipe.

Question:

A flat plate orifice of \(50 \mathrm{~mm}\) diameter is located at the end of a 100-mm-diameter pipe. Water flows through the pipe and orifice at \(57 \mathrm{~m}^{3} / \mathrm{s}\). The diameter of the water jet downstream from the orifice is \(38 \mathrm{~mm}\). Calculate the external force required to hold the orifice in place. Neglect friction on the pipe wall.
