Question
Water is flowing in a bend which flows from horizontal to vertically upward as shown in the figure below. The diameter of the pipe increases from 1.5 m at cross section 1 to 2 m at cross section 2 which is situated 0.5 m above cross section 1. The volume of water in the pipe between cross sections 1 and 2 is 4.99492 m3. If the discharge is 1 m/s and the pressure at cross section 1 is 1 bar. Assuming there is no energy loss: (a) Calculate the pressure at cross-section 2. (b) Calculate the horizontal component of the force that water flowing in the pipe exerts on the bend. Give your answer in kN [1 decimal place] (c) Calculate the vertical component of the force that water flowing in the pipe exerts on the bend Give your answer in kN [1 decimal place] (d) Calculate the magnitude of the force that water flowing in the pipe exerts on the bend.
