ater flows at a rate of 107L /s round a 1510 contracting pipe bend which lies in a horizontal plane. The diameter at the bend entrance is 771mm and at the exit 418mm. If the pressure at the entrance to the bend is 256kN/m2, determine the resultant force in the Horizontal direction (taking to the Left as positive) exerted by the fluid on the bend, correct to the nearest N. (Use π = 3.14)
