Water at $$50^{?}\mathrm{F}$$ flows through a horizontal bend and discharges into the atmosphere as shown in the figure below. When the pressure gage reads $$p=15$$ psi, the resultant $$x$$-direction anchoring force in the horizontal plane required to hold the bend in place, $$F_{Ax}$$, is equal to $$1440\mathrm{lb}$$. The flow is not frictionless. The areas $$A_1$$ and $$A_2$$ are $$0.3$$ and $$0.15{\mathrm{ft}}^2$$ respectively. (d) Determine the flowrate through the bend. $$Q={\mathrm{ft}}^3/\mathrm{s}$$ (b) Find the $$y$$-direction anchoring force $$F_{Ay}$$, required to hold the bend in place. $$F_{Ay}=$$ $$\mathrm{lb}$$
