water flows out of the pipe at A and B with velocities
vA = 12 ft/s and vB = 25 ft/s, determine the horizontal
and vertical components of force exerted on the elbow
necessary to hold the pipe assembly in equilibrium. Neglect
the weight of water within the pipe and the weight of the
pipe. The pipe has a diameter of 0.75 in. at C, and at A and B
the diameter is 0.5 in. y, = 62.4 lb/ftť.

*15–124. The boat has a mass of 180 kg and is traveling
forward on a river with a constant velocity of 70 km/h,
measured relative to the river. The river is flowing in the
opposite direction at 5 km/h. If a tube is placed in the water,
as shown, and it collects 40 kg of water in the boat in 80 s,
determine the horizontal thrust T on the tube that is
required to overcome the resistance due to the water
collection and yet maintain the constant speed of the boat.
