A liquid flows (steady state conditions) with a mass flow of 10kg/s through a horizontal pipe (constant diameter), with a right-angled bend (seen figure). Before the bend, the liquid pressure is equal to p1=1.2105Pa, after the bend the pressure of the liquid is equal to p2=1105Pa. Calculate the force Rf,w (in absolute value and direction) which the flowing liquid acts on the bend. Neglect any frictional losses due to flow. Given: Density of fluid ():1000kg/m3 Diameter of the pipe (D):0.1m
