Water flows at a rate of 1.17L/s through a flanged faucet with a partially closed gate valve spigot. The inner diameter of the pipe at the location of the flange is 2cm, and the pressure at that location is measured to be 90kPa. The total mass of the faucet assembly plus the water within it is 5.7 kg. Calculate the net force on the flange.
