Find horizontal components of forces necessary to hold bend


A 4 foot diameter pipeline carries water at a temperature of 60 F at a steady flow rate of 40 cubic feet per second. The pipe line makes a 90 degree horizontal bend. The pressure at the begining of the bend is 72 pounds per square inch. The pressure at the end of the bend is 70 pounds per square inch. Determine the horizontal components of the forces necessary to hold the bend in place.
