The water jet exiting from a stationary tank through a circular opening of diameter $$300$$ $$mm$$ impinges on a rigid wall as shown in the figure. Neglect all minor losses and assume the water level in the tank to remain constant. The net horizontal force experienced by the wall is ___________ $$kN.$$

Density of water is $$1000\,\,kg/{m^3}.$$

Acceleration due to gravity $$g = 10\,\,m/{s^2}.$$

A channel of width $$450$$ $$mm$$ branches into two sub-channels having width $$300$$ $$mm$$ and $$200$$ $$mm$$ as shown in figure. If the volumetric flow rate (taking unit depth) of an incompressible flow through the main channel is $$0.9$$ $$3$$ $$m/s,$$ and the velocity in the sub-channel of width $$200$$ $$mm$$ is $$3$$ $$m/s,$$ the velocity in the sub-channel of width $$300$$ $$mm$$ is _____________ $$m/s$$.

Assume both inlet and outlet to be at the same elevation.
