A 60° bend occurs in a water pipeline that reduces from 600 mm diameter to 300 mm diameter at the bend (inside bend angle 120). If the gauge pressure at the inlet is 172 KPa, determine the magnitude ad angle of the thrust on the bend when the flow is 0.85 m3/s. Hint: start by calculating the initial and final velocities, then the final pressure. Next, analyze the pressure and momentum forces in the x and y planes.
