Chapter 2.6, Problem 6E

(Hydraulics) a. Write, compile, and run a C++ program to calculate the horizontal force exerted on the T- connector pipe shown in Figure when the mass flow rate is 1.5 kg/s, and the fluid's velocity entering the T-connector is 3 m/s. The formula for determining this force is as follows: Fh = Mf x v Fh is the horizontal force (N). Mf is the mass flow rate (kg/s). v is the velocity (m/s) of the fluid entering the pipe. Your program should produce the following display (replacing the xxxx with the actual force value your program calculates): The horizontal force, in Newtons, is XXXX b. Manually check the values computed by your program. After verifying that your program is working correctly, modify it to calculate the force exerted when the mass flow rate is 2.3 kg/s, and the velocity of the fluid entering the pipe is 4.25 m/s.
