It pushes the currents to opposite sides
It means you can do 550 Newton Meters of work every second. Power is the rate of doing work, I hope this helps

(a) The velocity of the object on the x-axis is 6 m/s, while on the y-axis is 2 m/s, so the magnitude of its velocity is the resultant of the velocities on the two axes:

And so, the kinetic energy of the object is

(b) The new velocity is 8.00 m/s on the x-axis and 4.00 m/s on the y-axis, so the magnitude of the new velocity is

And so the new kinetic energy is

So, the work done on the object is the variation of kinetic energy of the object:
Answer:
(a) 3.44 x 10^-3 m^3/s
(b) 8.4 m/s
Explanation:
area of water line, A = 5.29 x 10^-3 m
number of holes, N = 15
Speed of water in line, V = 0.651 m/s
(a) Volume flow rate is given by
V = area of water line x speed of water in water line
V = 5.29 x 10^-3 x 0.651 = 3.44 x 10^-3 m^3/s
(b) area of one hole, a = 4.13 x 10^-4 m
Let v be the velocity of water in each hole
According to the equation of continuity
A x V = a x v
5.29 x 10^-3 x 0.651 = 4.1 x 10^-4 x v
v = 8.4 m/s
