Question

A tapered pipe is bent at 600 in the vertical plane. The diameters of inlet and outlet are 200cm and 400cm respectively. The center of the outlet is 180cm above the inlet. The pressure at outlet Page 2 of 2 is 500Kpa. If the flow rate of 0.04m3/s, calculate the resultant force and direction of action of the force.
