The bend is connected to the pipe at flanges A and B as shown. If the diameter of the pipe is 1 ft and it carries a volumetric flow of 50 ft /s, determine the horizontal and vertical components of force and the moment exerted at the fixed base D of the support. The total weight of the water within the bend is 500 lb, with a mass center at point G. The pressure of the water at A is 15 psi. Assume that no force is transferred to the flanges at A and B. 1.5 ft 45 The bend is connected to the pipe at flanges A and B as shown.
