As shown in the figure, the water is directed downward in the installation with a 25 ° angle narrowing elbow in a piping system with a volumetric flow of 0.025 m3 / s. Effective pressure at 1 point is measured as 2 bar. Where the flow is frictionless and gravitational effects are neglected,
a) Find the effective pressure at point 2.
b) Calculate the x and y components of the force needed to hold the elbow in place and the resultant force.
(pwater=1000 kg/m3, g = 9.81 m/s2).
