Question

A 5-cm-diameter horizontal jet of water with a velocity of 40 m/s relative to the ground strikes a flat plate that is moving in the same direction as the jet at a velocity of 10 m/s. The water splatters in all directions in the plane of the plate. How much force does the water stream exert on the plate?
