Liquid (SG = 1.2) enters the black sphere through a 2 in. pipe with velocity of 50

Question:

Liquid (SG = 1.2) enters the “black sphere” through a 2 in. pipe with velocity of 50 ft/s and a pressure of 60 psig. It leaves the sphere through two jets as shown. The velocity in the vertical jet is 100 ft/s, and its diameter is 1 in. Th e other jet’s diameter is also 1 in. What force through the 2 in. pipe wall is required in the x and y-directions to hold the sphere in place? Assume the sphere plus the liquid inside it weighs 200 lbf.
