A pipe bends through 900 from its initial direction as shown in fig.13. The pipe reduces in diameter such that the velocity at point (2) is 1.5 times the velocity at point (1). The pipe is 200 mm diameter at point (1) and the static pressure is 100 kPa. The volume flow rate is 0.2 m3/s. Assume there is no friețion. Calculate the following. a) The static pressure at (2). b) The velocity at (2). c) The horizontal and vertical forces on the bend Fµ and Fy. d) The total resultant force on the bend.
