2) Given: A 30 degree vertical pipe bend of constant diameter of 0.5 meters. Flow direction is from upper right to lower left. Mass flowrate \((\mathrm{mdot})=2,200\mathrm{~kg}/\mathrm{s},\mathrm{v}=1.8\mathrm{~m}/\mathrm{s}\). Weight of pipe bend and water inside \(=3,600\mathrm{~N}\). Pipe is flowing full. Pressure at the pipe bend entrance is 70 kPa and 55 kPa at the exit.
Find the Reaction Forces, in kN , holding the pipe bend in place, in both the x and y directions. Write the full simplified momentum equation to begin. Draw axes and separate force and momentum diagrams. Use separate horizontal and vertical direction equations in your solution.
