(50%): In a 45° bend a rectangular air duct of 1m? cross-sectional area is gradually reduced to 0.5 m² area as shown in Fig. below (top view). Find the magnitude and direction of the force required to hold the duct in position if the velocity of the flow (vi=10m/s), and pressure is 29430 Pa. Take pair = 1.16 kg/m?.
