But is it possible for me to calculate the force deflected?

Yeah, I thought that when the angle of the paddles change, there would be energy wasted. But I have no clue how to calculate that component.

Oooops! Thats what I mean. I'm still kinda new to physics, but I'm guessing it has to do with free body diagrams?

Hello, I'm currently writing a high school academic paper on waterwheels. One of the things I want to find out is whether the angle of paddles of the undershot waterwheel affects the angular velocity. So here is my question: How do the different angles of the paddles in a waterwheel affect...
