Question: A firehose with a nozzle connected by a flange has a mass flow rate of 3 7 . 5 k g s , entrance velocity

A firehose with a nozzle connected by a flange has a mass flow rate of 37.5kgs, entrance velocity of 4.3ms, exit velocity of 34.4ms and p 1 of 470,888 Pa which acts on an area of 7.854e-3m2. What is the magnitude of the total force FB on the flange in Newtons (absolute value only). Don't worry about the 12FB split between the 2 bolts as shown. Just Calculate FB.
