Question

A high velocity water jet of cross section area =0.01 m2= 0.01 \text{ m}^2 and velocity =35 m/s= 35 \text{ m/s} enters a pipe filled with stagnant water. The diameter of the pipe is 0.32 m0.32 \text{ m}. This high velocity water jet entrains additional water from the pipe and the total water leaves the pipe with a velocity 6 m/s6 \text{ m/s} as shown in the figure.
Diagram showing a water jet entering a pipe, entraining water, and the total flow exiting the pipe.
The flow rate of entrained water is ________ litres/s (round off to two decimal places).
