A steady flow of water (p = 1000 kg/m') is flowing through a reducing pipe bend at 20 kg/s to atmospheric air as shown in Figure 1. The pipe bend has a diameter of 0.1 m at the entrance and 0.07 m at the exit. Assume negligible loss and the water stream is flowing on a horizontal plane, determine: (a) Gauge pressure at entrance of the pipe bend. (b) The force "F" acting upon the water stream at the pipe bend. 45° Atmospheric Pressure Diameter = 0.07 m Diameter 0.1 m Figure 1 Internal Flow through the Reducing Pipe Bend
