Given :
▪ Water comes out of pipe at the rate of 3kgps
▪ Initial velocity = 5mps
▪ Final velocity = zero
To Find :
▪ Force exerted on the wall.
Concept :
✏ This question is completely based on concept of Newton's second law of motion.
✏ As per this law, Force is defined as the rate of change in momentum. (wrt time)
✏ Momentum is defined as the product of mass and velocity.

Given :
Water comes out of pipe at the rate of 3 kg/s
Initial velocity = 5 m/s
Final velocity = 0
Change in velocity = Δv = 5-0 = 5 m/s
Explanation :
A/c to Newton second's law ,
" Force is defined as rate of change of momentum "
Momentum , P = mΔv
