We know that the volume flow rate of the water or any in-compressible liquid remains constant throughout motion. Therefore, from continuity equation, we know that:
A₁v₁ = A₂v₂
where,
A₁ = Area of entrance pipe = πd₁²/4 = π(0.016 m)²/4 = 0.0002 m²
v₁ = entrance velocity = 3 m/s
A₂ = Area of nozzle = πd₂²/4 = π(0.005 m)²/4 = 0.0000196 m²
newtons is a measure of force. Since there is more newtons(force) pushing to the left, the object will move left. the 15 newtons cancel each other out, leaving only 5 newtons pushing to one side with no resistance.
