The pipe elbow below discharges water at rate of SN/100 (m3/s) into the atmosphere at section 2. The total volume of the passage between sections 1 and 2 is equal to 0.2 m3 and the total mass of the elbow material between sections 1 and 2 is equal to 10 x SN (kg). Neglect any friction losses.
Calculate the horizontal and vertical forces acting on the elbow. Also, calculate the resultant force and angle of force on the elbow.

19- Considering the incompressible, frictionless flow of water in a vertical pipe, the pressure is 320 kPa at 3 m above the ground. During this flow, the speed of the water does not change. What is the pressure value at 18 m above ground level? Take q=1000 kg/m3 and g=9.81 m/s2
Water with density of 1000 kg/m^3 flows through a horizontal pipe (in the x-z plane) bend as shown. The weight of the pipe is 350 N and the pipe cross-sectional area is constant and equals to 0.35 m^2. The magnitude of the inlet velocity is 4 m/s. The absolute pressures at the entrance and exit of the bend are 210 kPa and 110 kPa, respectively.
