C 6 slugs/sec of water enters a U-bend at speed 8 feet/sec as shown above. The water exits the u-bend with the same speed and mass flow rate. Determine the net force on the water in the U-bend in pounds. Answer with a positive number if the net force is to the right, a negative number if the net force is to the left, and "0" if there is no net force. Your answer should include at least one digit after the decimal place.
