An open tank L ft long as shown below travels to the right at a velocity v_c fps. A jet of area A_j exhausts fluid of density r at a velocity v_jfps relative to the car.

The tank car, at the same time, collects fluids from an overhead sprinkler which directs fluid downward with velocity vs.

Assuming that the sprinkler flow is uniform over the car area, A_c, determine the net force of the fluid on the tank car.
