A reducing elbow is used to deflect water flow at a rate of 30 kg/s in a horizontal pipe upward by an angle e = 45° from the flow direction while accelerating it. The elbow discharges water into an atmosphere. The cross sectional area of the elbow is 150 cm² at the exist. The elevation difference between the centers of the exist and the inlet is 40 cm. The mass of the elbow and the water is 50 kg. Determine the anchoring force needed to hold the elbow in place. (Ans: 1.18 kN) 0 cm Water
