Water flows through a circular pipe with a 180° horizontal elbow and exits to the atmosphere through a nozzle as shown in figure 3. The diameter of the pipe is 300mm and the diameter of the nozzle exit is 160mm. The density of water is 999kg/m³. The mass flow rate of water is 140kg/s. Incompressible, inviscid flow may be assumed. section 2 $ 160 mm Rx $ 300 mm section 1 Figure 3: default a. Calculate the velocity of the water at sections 1 and 2 respectively, X b. What is the gauge pressure at section 1? C. What is the magnitude and direction of the force Rx exerted by the water on the elbow?
