Water flowing in a horizontal 25-cm-diameter pipe at 8 m/s and 300 kPa gage enters a 90
Question:
Water flowing in a horizontal 25-cm-diameter pipe at 8 m/s and 300 kPa gage enters a 90° bend reducing section, which connects to a 15-cm-diameter vertical pipe. The inlet of the bend is 50 cm above the exit. Neglecting any frictional and gravitational effects, determine the net resultant force exerted on the reducer by the water. Take the momentum-flux correction factor to be 1.04.
Step by Step Answer:
A 90 reducer elbow deflects water downwards into a smaller diameter pipe The resultant force exerted on the reducer by water is to be determined Assum...View the full answer

In Physics, a force is an influence that can change the motion of an object. A force can cause an object with mass to change its velocity, i.e., to accelerate. Force can also be described intuitively as a push or a pull. A force has both magnitude and direction, making it a vector quantity. In this video, the concept of force and torque is demonstrated with the practical application of changing the flat tire of the car.
