  • A
    $80$
  • B
    $28$
  • C
    $-112$
  • D
    $56$

$A$ flat plate moves normally with a speed $v_1$ towards a horizontal jet of water of uniform area of cross-section. The jet discharges water at the rate of volume $V$ per second at a speed of $v_2$. The density of water is $\rho$. Assume that water splashes along the surface of the plate at right angles to the original motion. The magnitude of the force acting on the plate due to the jet of water is

$A$ solid disc of mass $M$ is held horizontally in the air by throwing $40$ stones per second vertically upwards to strike the disc,each with a velocity of $6\,m/s$. If the mass of each stone is $0.05\,kg$,what is the mass of the disc in $kg$? (Take $g = 10\,m/s^2$)
