A horizontal pipe curves through a deflection angle of 60° and in the bend changes from 900 mm in diameter to 600 mm the velocity in the larger pipe is 2.4 m/s, and the mean pressure is 140 kPa. Compute the components of the total force exerted on the bend, that are parallel and normal to the axis of the 900 mm pipe. 1.
