What is the Direction of Resultant Force on a Stationary Vane Caused by Water?

In summary, the resultant force on vane is the net force acting on a vane, calculated by summing up all individual forces and affected by factors such as angle of attack, air density, and vane shape. It is important in determining vane motion and stability and can be manipulated by changing various factors.

Homework Statement


in the calculation , the direction of resultant force that we got is the force of vane act on water , right ? to get the resultant force act on vane ? it should be opposite to the force of vane act on water , am i right ? IMO , the resultant force at stationary vane (which is caused by water) should be act to right and upwards , am i correct ?

Yes.
 

1. What is the definition of "resultant force on vane"?

The resultant force on vane refers to the net force acting on a vane or airfoil, taking into account both magnitude and direction.

2. How is the resultant force on vane calculated?

The resultant force on vane can be calculated by summing up all the individual forces acting on the vane, including lift, drag, weight, and thrust.

3. What factors affect the resultant force on vane?

The resultant force on vane is affected by various factors such as the angle of attack, air density, air velocity, and the shape and size of the vane.

4. Why is the resultant force on vane important?

The resultant force on vane is important because it determines the motion and stability of the vane, and is essential in understanding and predicting the behavior of objects in fluid dynamics.

5. How can the resultant force on vane be manipulated?

The resultant force on vane can be manipulated by changing the angle of attack, adjusting the shape or size of the vane, or altering the air velocity or density around the vane. These changes can result in changes in lift, drag, and other forces acting on the vane.
