er strikes an obstacle so as to be brought torest, it exerts a force equal to adv2/g on the obstacle. This isevident when we consider that the force which is exerted bya jet as the water is brought to rest is equal to the force whichmust be exerted on the water to set it in motion at the pointwhere… … Fig. 142. Fig. 143. exert if it were brought to rest, because it loses all of its velocityin the original direction. If the jet strikes a curved plate asindicated in Fig. 143 so as to rebound in an opposite directionwith unchanged velocity (gliding along the curved plate withoutfriction), then it…
