A reducing elbow is used to deflect water flow at a rate of 95 kg/s in a horizontal pipe upward 45° while accelerating it (Figure below). The elbow discharges water into the atmosphere (ρ= 1000 kg/m3). The crosssectional area of the elbow is 113 cm2 at the inlet and 7 cm2 at the outlet. The elevation difference between the centers of the outlet and the inlet is 30 cm. The weight of the elbow and the water in it is considered to be negligible. Determine (a) the gage pressure at the center of the inlet of the elbow and (b) the anchoring force FRZ needed to hold the elbow in place.

Question
A reducing elbow is used to deflect water flow at a rate of 95 kg/s in a horizontal pipe upward 45° while accelerating it (Figure below). The elbow discharges water into the atmosphere (ρ= 1000 kg/m3). The crosssectional area of the elbow is 113 cm2 at the inlet and 7 cm2 at the outlet. The elevation difference between the centers of the outlet and the inlet is 30 cm. The weight of the elbow and the water in it is considered to be negligible. Determine
(a) the gage pressure at the center of the inlet of the elbow and
(b) the anchoring force FRZ needed to hold the elbow in place.
